Egyptian intelligence chief warns of resistance buildup
The Atlantic magazine reveals that former Egyptian intelligence chief, Abbas Kamel, traveled to Israel 11 days before the October 7, 2023 attack, warning of a potential Hamas operation in Gaza. Kamel informed Israeli officials that indicators pointed to an imminent outbreak of violence in the strip and delivered a warning message emphasizing the seriousness of the tensions, along with a call for economic measures to reduce unrest. The message did not specify the timing of the attack but revealed high-level intelligence coordination at a time when Israel was closing the Erez crossing and tensions in Gaza were escalating. International and local warnings about the possibility of a large-scale conflict in the strip were increasing. The events show that Egypt, despite its reservations, was warning of an imminent danger, and Israeli and American analysts understood Cairo’s forecasts of a major military escalation in Gaza days before it happened.
