Report: UAE Warned Netanyahu Before Oct. 7 Attack
- On Tuesday, Haaretz reported that United Arab Emirates President Mohammed bin Zayed warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about 10 days before the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack that leader Yahya Sinwar was planning a major operation.
- Based on the forthcoming book 'Kidnapped: 843 Days of Abandonment,' the report describes a 45-minute call where bin Zayed warned Netanyahu of an imminent 'earthquake,' though Netanyahu allegedly failed to share this intelligence with top security chiefs including the Shin Bet and Mossad.
- Netanyahu's office rejected the claims as an 'absolute lie,' while reports also note that Egyptian intelligence chief Abbas Kamel separately warned Netanyahu of 'something unusual, a terrible operation' approximately 10 days before the attack.
- Opposition leaders Gadi Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, Avigdor Lieberman, and Yair Golan issued a rare joint statement demanding an 'immediate and thorough investigation' into Netanyahu's conduct, making the controversy central to the October 27 election.
- As the election nears, Netanyahu faces mounting criticism; opponents dismiss his defense that he was not woken up as 'pathetic,' with Eisenkot arguing Netanyahu led Israel blindly toward the October 7 disaster.
