Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office has issued a strong denial regarding a report by the Associated Press (AP) alleging that Netanyahu asked UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed to refute claims he had warned him before the October 7th Hamas attacks. The Prime Minister's office labeled the report "fake news."
According to the statement, the visit in question focused solely on strengthening relations between Israel and the UAE and addressing regional challenges. The office explicitly rejected the AP's assertion that the Prime Minister had requested the UAE president to deny any prior warning.
The AP report had suggested that Netanyahu sought to counter a narrative that he had been alerted to potential threats before the Hamas incursion. The Prime Minister's office's latest statement reiterates their position that such claims are false and that the meeting's agenda was strictly limited to bilateral and regional matters.
