Israel received a warning from Egypt about potential violence three days before the deadly attack orchestrated by Hamas, according to Michael McCaul, the chairman of the US House Foreign Affairs Committee. McCaul disclosed this information following a closed-door intelligence briefing for lawmakers on the Middle East crisis.

“We know that Egypt has warned the Israelis three days prior that an event like this could happen,” McCaul told reporters. However, the level at which the warning was given remains unclear. McCaul expressed confusion as to how both the United States and Israel missed the warning.
