89-year-old Dalai Lama returns to Dharamshala, India, after knee surgery in New York.

The Dalai Lama has returned to Dharamshala, India, after knee replacement surgery in New York on June 28. The 89-year-old leader, who is recovering well, is expected to improve over the next six to 12 months. He has lived in Dharamshala since fleeing Tibet in 1959 and remains the spiritual leader of the Tibetan community, advocating for autonomy and cultural protection, rather than independence, despite China's view of him as a separatist.
