Netanyahu's Office Faces Allegations of Corruption and Conspiracy
TL;DR
Investigations are underway into whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office had prior knowledge of the October 7 Hamas attack, following reports that Israeli SIM cards were activated in Gaza before the assault. Allegations suggest these SIM cards, part of an espionage operation, were meant to warn of an impending attack. The prime minister's office denies prior knowledge, calling the claims a media witch hunt. The controversy includes accusations of document tampering and blackmail within the military secretariat.
