UAE warned Netanyahu of Hamas attack pre-Oct 7; warning never reached security chiefs

Israeli officials say the UAE leader warned Netanyahu of an impending Hamas attack before Oct. 7, but the warning lacked specifics and was not passed to Israel's security chiefs. The claim is based on anonymous Israeli officials and is not independently corroborated. It matters because it raises questions about intelligence-sharing and decision-making in Israel's leadership ahead of the deadliest attack in its history.
