Netanyahu Allegedly Withheld Foreign Warnings of Hamas Attack from Security Agencies

Multiple sources claim Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu received warnings from UAE and Egyptian officials regarding an impending Hamas attack prior to October 7, 2023. These warnings were reportedly not disseminated to Israel's security establishment, including Shin Bet, Mossad, and IDF Military Intelligence, raising significant questions about intelligence failures and decision-making at the highest levels. Netanyahu denies these reports, while his political party, Likud, has attacked the New York Times for its reporting.
