A private Egyptian jet that landed in Israel several days before the October 7th Hamas attacks carried two businessmen, not the head of Egyptian intelligence, Abbas Kamel. and departed for Cairo an hour later, empty of passengers. According to sources familiar with the matter, the passengers entered Israel via the Ftel terminal, in what was described as a routine business trip for individuals returning from Egypt.
This flight was not registered as an official or security-related operation. While the passengers' identities are known to relevant authorities, including the Ministry of Transport, the Ftel terminal, the Population and Immigration Authority, and the charter company, the privacy of executive jet passengers is strictly maintained, preventing officials from disclosing their identities.
Last week, Major General (res.) Avi Gill, former military secretary to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stated in media interviews that an Egyptian aircraft had indeed landed in Israel about a week and a half before the massacre. This new information clarifies who was on board, indicating it was not the Egyptian intelligence chief.
