Rep. Mike McCaul, R-Texas, chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said he was informed that Egypt warned Israel three days before Saturday's terrorist attack by Hamas that "an event like this could happen."
"We know that Egypt has warned the Israelis three days prior that an event like this could happen," McCaul told reporters Wednesday following a closed-door intelligence briefing on the attack, the BBC reported. An Egyptian official asserted to The Times of Israel that its intelligence service warned Israeli counterparts that Hamas was planning "something big" ahead of Saturday's surprise attack. The official speculated the warning did not make it up the chain of command to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office.
