Israel’s Netanyahu Visited Abu Dhabi on Sunday, Israeli Official Says
The private meeting came as reports of a pre-Oct. 7 warning from the UAE leader renewed scrutiny of Israel-UAE security ties.
- On Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly visited Abu Dhabi to meet UAE President Mohamed bin Zayed, with the office of the Prime Minister declining to comment on the meeting initially reported by N12.
- This visit follows weeks of controversy regarding reports that MbZ warned Netanyahu of an "earthquake" being planned by then-Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar before Oct 7, which Netanyahu has denied.
- The UAE and Bahrain remained in the General Assembly hall during Netanyahu's recent address while other delegates walked out; Israel previously deployed an Iron Dome system to the Emirates.
- Netanyahu previously visited Abu Dhabi secretly during Operation Roaring Lion, establishing a pattern of clandestine diplomatic engagement between the leaders.
- The visit deepens security cooperation between Israel and the UAE, with both nations strengthening their strategic partnership in response to regional challenges including the recent war with Iran.
