Former Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said he was unaware of warnings preceding the October 7, 2023 attack until learning of them through media reports, Shehab Wire reported. Gallant's statement suggests senior Israeli officials did not receive or act on advance alerts related to the operation.
The disclosure raises questions about intelligence failures prior to the assault, which killed hundreds of Israelis and triggered the ongoing war in Gaza.
