Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to publicly refute claims that the Emirates warned Israel of a pending attack before 7 October, Middle East Eye reported. The request came during a meeting in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.

The nature of the alleged warning and whether the UAE possessed information about the Hamas assault remained unclear from accounts of the encounter.
