Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was warned about the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack at least 10 days before it happened by UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, according to a fresh report by Tel Aviv-based newspaper.

UAE reportedly warned Netanyahu of an impending Hamas attack days before October 7, raising questions about Israel's preparedness.

An Israeli newspaper says Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was directly warned by the president of the United Arab Emirates that Hamas was planning a major offensive just days before the militant group attacked on Oct. 7, 2023.

Haaretz has reported that the UAE president warned Benjamin Netanyahu about a Hamas operation before October 7. The disputed claim has sharpened scrutiny of what the Israeli prime minister knew before the attack.

During a 45-minute call, the Emirati ruler reportedly asked Netanyahu to take the threat seriously, expressing concern that any such attack could not only lead to bloodshed but also destabilise the entire region and undermine the Abraham Accords.
