American philosopher Noam Chomsky has been discharged from the hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, where he had been receiving treatment for some time.

In a statement from the Beneficencia Portuguesa Hospital in Sao Paulo, it was stated that Chomsky had been discharged and that his treatment would continue at home.

It had been reported in the press that the 95-year-old world-renowned linguist Noam Chomsky had been experiencing difficulty speaking and moving the right side of his body since last year.

Chomsky, who is considered the father of modern linguistics, has also written more than 100 books on conflicts in the Middle East and geopolitical issues.
