PM’s former spokesman insists Netanyahu’s account of UAE wartime visit is true

As the UAE denies Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the country during the latest war against Iran, Netanyahu’s then-spokesman insists his former boss’s account is true.

“As someone who knows the United Arab Emirates well and has lived there for long periods of time, and as someone who accompanied the prime minister on the historic trip that has been top secret until today, I can say that the prime minister was received in Abu Dhabi with the honor of kings,” writes Ziv Agmon on Facebook.

“Sheikh [Mohamed] bin Zayed, his family members, and other dignitaries welcomed us and were happy to see the prime minister of Israel on their soil,” he continues.

Netanyahu’s office revealed the visit earlier tonight, which Abu Dhabi denied.

“The sheikh greatly respected the prime minister and personally drove the prime minister in his personal car from the plane to the palace,” writes Agmon. “The things the prime minister concluded during this amazing visit will be talked about for generations to come. A great success!”
