  • Ra'am Chairman Abbas stated Netanyahu said he and Hamas leader Sinwar understand each other.
  • Abbas claimed Netanyahu knew money to Gaza funded Hamas's military wing.
  • The revelations follow sharp criticism of Abbas by Prime Minister Netanyahu.
  • Abbas's comments stem from a conversation during the "Guardian of the Walls" operation.

Ra'am party chairman Abbas responded sharply to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent remarks, revealing a conversation from the "Guardian of the Walls" operation period. Abbas stated that Netanyahu told him, "He and Sinwar understand each other." Abbas further claimed that Netanyahu was aware that funds allocated to Gaza were reaching the military wing of Hamas. These statements come after Netanyahu made strong accusations against Abbas during a speech.

Abbas's revelations suggest a complex dynamic during the Gaza conflict, implying that Netanyahu had insight into the flow of funds to Hamas's armed forces and perceived a level of mutual understanding between himself and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. The comments from Abbas appear to be a direct rebuttal to Netanyahu's recent criticisms.
