Whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was directly warned prior to the October 7, 2023, attacks is a subject of intense controversy, with investigative reports alleging he was given explicit advance warning, while Netanyahu himself vehemently denies it.
A bombshell investigation published in September 2026 by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reveals that United Arab Emirates President Mohammed bin Zayed personally called Netanyahu approximately 10 days before the attack. During a 45-minute call, the Emirati leader allegedly warned Netanyahu explicitly that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was planning a major operation against Israel that could destabilize the region. According to the report, Netanyahu dismissed the threat, incorrectly assessing that Hamas intended to focus its efforts on the West Bank. Following these revelations, Netanyahu strongly denied the claims, calling them an “absolute lie” and a politically motivated fabrication, and announced he is instructing his lawyers to file a libel lawsuit against Haaretz.
Key Findings and Perspectives
- The Emirati Warning Report: The Haaretz investigation, detailed in a book by journalists Shlomi Eldar and Ruti Yuval, alleges that the UAE contacted Netanyahu directly after realizing Israeli intelligence was not reacting to initial signals. They state Netanyahu hid this warning and never updated his security chiefs.
- Netanyahu’s Libel Lawsuit: The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) released statements asserting that no such communication took place and that phone records show no contact between Netanyahu and the UAE during September 2023. Netanyahu is actively suing the publication and the reporting journalist for defamation.
- The UAE’s Stance: The UAE Foreign Ministry declined to issue an official denial to back up Netanyahu’s inner circle. Officials conveyed that they will not interfere in Israeli domestic political debates or serve as a public relations wing, but noted that relevant intelligence is always passed through appropriate direct channels.
- Domestic Political Fallout: Coming shortly before crucial Israeli parliamentary elections, opposition leaders have heavily attacked Netanyahu. Rivals such as Naftali Bennett and Gadi Eisenkot declared him “unfit” to lead, accusing him of gross negligence and deflecting historical blame onto the security establishment.
Several major international and domestic news broadcasts have covered the intense political storm surrounding what Netanyahu knew prior to the security breakdown:

Рішення так званого російського «суду» не мають для мене, як і для решти людства, жодного значення. Значення має лише моя робота, яка змушує ворога панікувати та ухвалювати подібні шедеври абсурду. Вважаю такі дії ворога своєрідним визнанням ефективності. Що ж, планку опускати не можна, працюватиму й надалі так само плідно.

🚨🇮🇱🇦🇪 Netanyahu is taking Haaretz to court over 10/7…
He claims the paper, journalist Shlomi Eldar, and others MADE UP the story that the UAE warned him Hamas was coming on October 7th.
He wants that report treated as a lie in front of a judge.
Haaretz says it stands by the story. Eldar told CNN he has documented proof…
Other Israeli reporting cited a senior regional intel source saying the UAE DID warn Israel of a possible, imminent Hamas attack…
The UAE has not publicly confirmed the account…
Could this be the final nail in the coffin for Bibi’s re-election hopes? Is that why it’s coming out now?

Iran has accelerated construction at the deeply buried Pickaxe Mountain site, CNN reports
The activity has raised concerns that Iran may be turning the facility into a uranium enrichment site.
The site is buried deep beneath solid granite, and the US currently has no known bunker-buster weapon capable of reaching it.
Granite is extremely hard, making it a major barrier for conventional bunker-busting weapons.
Pentagon has created a highly secretive task force to speed up development of a new weapon that could potentially reach the facility.
US also awarded an emergency $1.2 million contract for weapons testing at a classified underground test range in New Mexico, linked to simulating strikes on Iran’s deepest bunkers.
Even a tactical nuclear weapon would not guarantee the complete destruction of a facility buried this deep and built to withstand powerful attacks.

Russia doesn’t have to spy on America from Moscow. Cuba sits just 90 miles from Florida, and Russian intelligence activity across the Caribbean puts U.S. bases, communications, and security in the crosshairs.

Trump’s special envoys, Whitkoff and Kushner, were shocked by the behavior of Zelenskyy and his entourage during their last visit to Kyiv, says Verkhovna Rada member Skorokhod. “When we’re losing people in droves, when we’re in total disarray on the front lines, when we have nothing to shoot down ballistic missiles, we joke,” she says.
