Haaretz also reported that Hamas immediately offered to release all the Israeli hostages it had taken in the attack, demanding nothing in return...
And if anyone believes that, they will believe anything else from Haaretz, which has been at war with Netanyahu and Likud for a long time, especially since 2025 when they have seen their subscriptions plummet due to boycott:
The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg wrote: "I like a lot of the people at Haaretz, and many of its positions, but the cartoonish anti-Israelism and anti-Semitism can be grating."
Reading Haaretz to "learn" about Likud is like reading NY Post to "learn" about Bidens or Obamas.
MBZ of UAE denied any specific knowledge, warning or even having a conversation with PMO, Shin Bet or Mossad about October 7 attack. Logs of any such calls from UAE at the time also don't exist. Also, there was no information transmitted from MBZ or anyone from UAE to the US intelligence or State Dept, which would be unusual if they had such information.
Bombshell' Report Says UAE Explicitly Warned Netanyahu of October 7 Attack.
Just in time before Oct 27 elections in Israel, and pushing the upcoming "bombshell" book of two Haaretz authors... based on "information" provided by UAE-based senior PA official Mohammad Dahlan.
"The real affair that was discovered in the last two days is blatant foreign interference in the elections in Israel. The person behind the false report in Haaretz newspaper is senior Palestinian official Mohammad Dahlan, who sits in the Emirates... for the purpose of PA gaining authority over Gaza."
The statement also noted a secret visit to UAE of Yair Golan and former Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar two months before the "bombshell" publication.
Likud is filing an "election interference" lawsuit against Haaretz and demanding criminal investigation into authors and "co-conspirators" Democratic Party - successor of merged Labor Party in 2024.
This is similar to debunked and later retracted three separate UN / UNWR "reports" of Israel "starvation policy of Gazans", based on Hamas Ministry of Health testimony, despite evidence of exactly opposite - Hamas-controlled distribution of food diverted and later sold at exorbitant prices massive amounts of food delivered to Gaza.

Meanwhile, in real life:
Cisco bought an Israeli cybersecurity company Astrix for $400M
Greece is buying $3.4B Israeli air defense system 'Achilles Shield'
German Navy successfully tested launching IAI's LORA ballistic missiles
Several EU / NATO countries are interested in defense technologies and systems from Israeli companies
Iran is successfully rearming with Chinese, Russian and their own missiles
Hamas is losing commanders in "low-grade war" but keeps rearming while Witkoff and Kushner clown show was visiting and making statements about Hamas "need to disarm" in the Middle East tour
Hezbollah is rearming while the Lebanese army is not capable of securing the zone
In the latest polls, Netanyahu's Likud and former IDF chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot's Yashar parties are well ahead of others. Whichever party gets most seats will try to form the government.
If you "like" Bibi, you'll "love" Gadi.
