Former Israeli General Giora Eiland spoke about official warnings issued prior to the October 7, 2023 attack from two different sources regarding the escalating threats from Gaza. One of these sources was Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has denied receiving a direct warning from the United Arab Emirates ten days earlier about Hamas's intention to carry out a large-scale operation. Eiland noted that Israeli intelligence had detected a significant increase in the likelihood of war erupting during the summer preceding the attack, raising questions about Israel's level of readiness and the accuracy of the information available before the surprise assault. This issue is viewed as part of the ongoing debate over intelligence and political failures that contributed to the unexpected surprise.
