️🇮🇱 Cannes: Contrary to the statement of the Prime Minister's Office, the Chief of Staff and the Chief of Staff did not talk to each other even once during the night before the attack on October 7. Instead there was communication between their chiefs of staff.

It was the Chief of Staff of the Shin Bet that eventually caused the Chief of Staff to wake up that night. This is documented in the IDF's investigation into the warning signs and the events of the night, which were presented to the political leadership.

Sources in the know claim that Netanyahu's statement created a false representation that the head of the Shin Bet and the head of the IDF deliberately hid information from the prime minister and communicated directly with each other that night, which they say did not happen. A former senior security official accused Netanyahu of pitting the heads of the security agencies against each other and said that the prime minister knows that the statement is false.
