Security Source Alleges PM Advisers Leaked Classified Egypt Briefings to Qatar

A security source alleges that information from classified Israeli discussions about possible Egyptian treaty violations was relayed to Qatar and then used in a campaign promoting Doha while disparaging Cairo. A second security source confirmed the meetings and their timing, but did not independently confirm the alleged transfer. Earlier reporting and a court document described a network involving Netanyahu advisers that promoted Qatar and negative messaging about Egypt during hostage negotiations. Jonatan Urich called the new allegation a complete lie, while Srulik Einhorn’s lawyer said Einhorn neither advised the prime minister nor attended the meetings.
