Netanyahu Makes Unannounced Visit to UAE Amid October 7 Warning Controversy
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made an unannounced visit to Abu Dhabi on September 27, 2026, meeting UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The visit lasted about four hours and was not immediately commented on by either side. It occurred amid renewed scrutiny over reports that the UAE president warned Netanyahu about a possible Hamas attack before October 7, 2023, which Netanyahu denies. The meeting took place against the backdrop of ongoing West Asia tensions and Netanyahu's upcoming reelection campaign.
