New findings have again raised questions on whether Israel received warnings of a large-scale offensive being prepared before Hamas's attack on October 7, 2023. Egypt's intelligence chief reportedly warned the Israeli side of the threat shortly before the attack. Welt ↗
The United Arab Emirates were also said to have reported the warning at the time. According to published reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to act against the Hamas leadership despite this information. He reportedly decided not to make the warnings public, with one of the reasons said to be an effort to preserve the reconciliation of relations with Saudi Arabia. ct24.ceskatelevize.cz ↗
On October 7, 2023, Hamas and other militant groups attacked Israel. The attack killed approximately 1,200 people and more than 250 others were taken hostage. The subsequent war in the Gaza Strip triggered extensive political and security criticism of the Israeli government. Spiegel.de ↗
The latest reports may increase pressure on Netanyahu to explain how his government assessed the warnings ahead of the attack and why it did not take more decisive measures. The published information could also affect the ongoing investigation into the circumstances that preceded the attack.
