US President Joe Biden, who is on a solidarity visit to Israel, has backed the ally’s account that Palestinian fighters caused a devastating hospital strike in Gaza, AFP reports.
“I was deeply saddened and outraged by the explosion at the hospital in Gaza yesterday. And based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you,” Biden said as he opened a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Tel Aviv.
“But there’s a lot of people out there not sure so we have to overcome a lot of things,” the US president said.
Biden added that he is encouraging Netanyahu to ensure “life-saving capacity to help the Palestinians who are innocent and caught in the middle of this”.
