Brisante Berichte: Warnung vor Hamas-Überfall ignoriert? - Netanjahu dementiert
Lokalen Medien zufolge soll Israels Ministerpräsident vor dem Hamas-Massaker 2023 eine Warnung aus Abu Dhabi erhalten und diese ignoriert haben. Die Emirate wollen sich nicht zu den Berichten äußern.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dismissed reports claiming that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) had warned him of an impending Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. His office confirmed that Netanyahu did not receive any warning from the UAE prior to the date of the terror attack. Earlier, the left-leaning Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that Netanyahu had been notified by the UAE and failed to inform his security chiefs or take any action based on the information.
The UAE President, Mohammed bin Sajid, allegedly called Netanyahu about a week before October 7, 2023, and warned him that Hamas chief Jihia al-Sinwar was planning a large-scale offensive against Israel. The UAE President also expressed concern that the event could destabilize the region and undermine Israel's Abraham Accords with several Arab states.
Netanyahu allegedly responded calmly, reassuring Israel was prepared for any scenario and downplayed the situation in the West Bank. The UAE has refused to comment on the reported conversations between the leaders.
