Netanyahu office denies Egyptian warning before October 7
The Office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied receiving any Egyptian warning prior to the October 7, 2023 attack. It also confirmed that it did not communicate with Egyptian officials or intelligence agencies about an imminent threat from Hamas. Nevertheless, Israeli reports indicate that Hamas still maintains military and organizational capabilities within the Gaza Strip, including approximately 25,000 to 30,000 fighters. It continues to maintain its tunnel networks, manufacture rockets, distribute weapons, and move combat assets through tunnels and aerial means flown from Egypt. This information highlights the difficulty in dismantling Hamas's military infrastructure, as its capabilities persist despite the blows it has sustained, reflecting the challenges Israel faces in curbing the group's abilities and organization in the territory.
