Nelson Mandela has been discharged from hospital, the South African presidency says, more than two months after the critically ill former president was admitted.
"Madiba's condition remains critical and is at times unstable," the presidency said in a statement, referring to the 95-year-old statesman by his clan name.
Mandela returned to his home in Houghton, Johannesburg, on Sunday morning.
"His team of doctors are convinced that he will receive the same level of intensive care at his Houghton home that he received in Pretoria," the statement read.
"His home has been reconfigured to allow him to receive intensive care there."
