Dahlan faction leader Mohammed Dahlan dismissed allegations from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he was responsible for a Haaretz report claiming Netanyahu was unaware of an Emirati warning before the October 7 attack. Netanyahu announced plans to sue both Haaretz and Eldar for defamation. Dahlan's political faction, the FRD, called Netanyahu's accusations "ludicrous" and "misleading," accusing him of trying to distract from questions about Israel's failures leading up to the attack.
FRD spokesperson Dimitri Diliani emphasized that Dahlan has never been involved in internal Israeli politics and is focused solely on Palestinian rights. The FRD also maintained that only Palestinians can decide Gaza's fate, rejecting any suggestion that the Israeli election process should influence the region.
