Egypt claims it warned Israel three times before 2023 Hamas attack

The Wall Street Journal reports that Egyptian intelligence warned Israeli counterparts on three separate occasions prior to the October 2023 Hamas attack, according to a translated Russian news item. The claim, if confirmed, would indicate a significant intelligence failure or dismissal of warnings by Israel, though the source is a secondary aggregation and the original WSJ report is not directly cited. This matters because it could strain Israel-Egypt relations and fuel domestic political scrutiny in Israel over the attack's preventability.
