MOSCOW (CNN) -- Russian President Boris Yeltsin on Monday left the Moscow hospital where he was admitted January 8 for treatment of pneumonia, the Kremlin announced.

But it did not say when Yeltsin, 65, would resume his regular work schedule.

Yeltsin left the Central Clinical Hospital in a convoy of limousines and headed to his residence, west of the capital. The Russian president was taken to the hospital two weeks after returning to his Kremlin office following heart bypass surgery on November 5.
