AFP says, “Noriega was in a hospital recovering from a brain tumor operation” when he passed away.
It quotes Panama’s Communications Secretary Manuel Dominguez as the source of the information.
Wikipedia says, Noriega was Panama’s military dictator from 1983 until 1989, when he was removed from power by the United States during the Panama invasion.
