Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu denied on September 1 that he and his wife had never stated that the Hamas attack that occurred on October 7, 2023 was caused by Israeli security personnel treason. He also accused this statement of “complete nonsense.” In a video statement posted on social media, Netanyahu said that Israel's failure to stop the attack was “a major mistake”. “All warning signs had already appeared at the time, but due to misjudgments, they decided not to irritate Hamas, wake me up, or launch a pre-emptive strike.”
