Netanyahu Received Hamas Warning from UAE President Before Oct. 7
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was explicitly warned by UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan about planned Hamas operations approximately ten days before the October 7th attack. This intelligence was revealed in a new book by journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruth Yuval titled "Hostages: 843 Days of Abandonment," as reported by Haaretz.
The book details that the warning from the UAE president specifically concerned actions planned by Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. The timing of this explicit warning, just a week and a half before the unprecedented assault, raises significant questions about the handling of intelligence by the Israeli government.
