Egyptian intelligence officials warned Israel before the October 7 attack that Hamas could launch a major assault from Gaza, according to reports. The message was reportedly delivered by Cairo’s intelligence chief during a visit to Tel Aviv, but Israeli officials disputed whether it contained specific operational details. Egypt later confirmed it had conveyed a general warning about an imminent threat. Analysts say the episode highlights failures to assess and act on intelligence before the attack. Responsibility remains contested in Israel.
