Naftali Bennett
Role at the time: Former prime minister of Israel and B’Yachad party leader
Challenged the characterization
Response to this claim
Naftali Bennett said the report that Netanyahu was warned ten days before October 7 about Yahya Sinwar’s intentions was true, without publicly explaining the basis for that assertion.
“The report published this morning that Netanyahu was warned 10 days before the October 7 massacre about Sinwar’s intentions is true.”

Why we used this label
Bennett directly disputed the Prime Minister’s Office’s categorical denial; the quoted statement asserts the report’s core allegation without publicly supplying his evidentiary basis.
