USAThe media recently revealed thatIsraelI knew it more than a year agoPalestinearmed groupHamascross-border attack plan, but turned a deaf ear because it thought the content was too ambitious. But according to three U.S. officials, there is no indication that Israel shared the matter with the U.S. intelligence community.
According to previous news, the New York Times reported on November 30 that documents, emails and interviews showed that Israeli officials obtained Hamas’s combat plan more than a year before it launched its cross-border attack on October 7 and The roughly 40-page document was named “Jericho Wall.”
The “Walls of Jericho” document outlines an item-by-item terrorist attack that resulted in the deaths of approximately 1,200 people. However, Israeli military and intelligence officials believed that the plan was too ambitious and judged that it would be too difficult to execute given Hamas’ capabilities. Israeli officials said privately that if the Israeli military had taken the warning signs of the “Walls of Jericho” more seriously and moved a large number of reinforcements to the southern areas where Hamas was attacking, the attack could have been weakened or even prevented.
Politico reported on the 1st that former and current U.S. officials who were interviewed anonymously said that although the United States and Israel have close intelligence relations, Israel does not seem to share Hamas’ secret combat plans with U.S. intelligence officials.
An official said, “There is currently no indication that the intelligence community has received the so-called ‘Walls of Jericho’ documents reported by the New York Times yesterday evening (November 30),” but reminded that “the intelligence community will certainly continue to re-examine the information it has. ”. A U.S. congressman and a former official also confirmed that Israeli officials did not provide the plan to the U.S. intelligence community. The former official said Israel’s failure to share the document was “very problematic.”

An IDF spokesman did not respond to a request for comment. A spokesman for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) declined to comment.
Politico also mentioned that in recent weeks, members of the U.S. Congress have questioned the extent to which the government relies on Israel to obtain Hamas-related information.

However, after Israel failed to promptly detect and prevent the cross-border attack on October 7, some members of the U.S. Congress and officials within the government questioned whether Washington should continue to rely so heavily on Israel for Hamas-related intelligence.
