Defense Minister Israel Katz said in an interview at the 'Decision Time: Democracy and Society' conference by Ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth in collaboration with the Israel Democracy Institute that 'as U.S. pressure on Iran increases and the friction and economic strangulation on Iran increases, there is a likelihood they will attack. We are prepared for this defensively. They love to attack on Jewish holidays because they are Jew-haters, note many things that happened in the past. But we are prepared both defensively and offensively in coordination with the U.S. in this regard.' When Katz was asked about Prime Minister's wife Sara Netanyahu's hint about 'betrayal from within' on October 7, he refused to say it did not happen. 'I can refer to what I know, and what I know from the material I saw that the IDF prepared—the failure is deep enough.'
