Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly visited the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Sunday, according to an Israeli source familiar with the visit, who spoke to CNN. The visit, if confirmed, would come exactly one month before Israel's October 27 election. The source reportedly said that Iran was a dominant topic of discussion during the meeting, as the two countries have strengthened cooperation in that region, including during the current Iran war.
The Israeli Prime Minister's Office has not confirmed the visit. CNN reached out to the UAE foreign ministry for comment. If the visit is true, it would mark a rare occasion for such a meeting between the two leaders. The alleged warning from UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed to Netanyahu about a major Hamas operation days before the October 7, 2023 attack, has been a subject of controversy.
CNN sought comment from the UAE foreign ministry regarding this claim. The visit was not publicly acknowledged.
