The Warning That Was Ignored | Dayton News

The body of Israeli officer Ran Gvili, the last hostage taken by Hamas, was recovered in Gaza after 800 days — a haunting milestone amid ceasefire talks. Just days before the October 7 massacre, UAE leaders reportedly warned Netanyahu of an imminent Hamas attack, which he dismissed as confined to the West Bank — a fatal miscalculation that cost over 1,200 lives. Earlier summer negotiations for a prisoner swap collapsed when Sinwar cut off contact, raising questions about whether his warnings were genuine or part of a deception. Netanyahu’s office denies the call ever happened — calling it a “total lie” — but the fallout exposes deep intelligence failures and dangerous misjudgments that led to catastrophe.
