Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to sue a newspaper over a published claim that the United Arab Emirates warned him before the 7 October attack.
The dispute concerns extracts from a book that were published by the newspaper. The extracts include the allegation that a warning from the UAE was given to Mr Netanyahu ahead of the attack.
The newspaper has said it stands by its reporting. The claim has not been presented as established fact, and Mr Netanyahu’s planned legal action indicates he is challenging the publication over the allegation.
No further details were provided in the supplied material about the court in which the case is expected to be brought, the specific legal grounds, or any remedy being sought.
The latest known position is that Mr Netanyahu intends to sue, while the newspaper maintains confidence in its reporting of the book extracts.
