Biden says Israel not to blame for rocket attack on Gaza hospital that left 500 dead: ‘Done by the other team’

President Biden arrived in Israel on Wednesday, where he held a brief press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

In their remarks, both leaders highlighted the death toll, the atrocities committed by Hamas, and the impact on children in Israel.

Biden also said Israel was not to blame for a rocket attack on a hospital in Gaza, which left at least 500 people dead.

“Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by the other team. Not you,” Biden said to Netanyahu. “But there’s a lot of people out there who are not sure.”

Netanyahu spoke first during the presser, applauding Biden for being the first U.S. president to visit Israel during a wartime.

He also urged the president to imagine what the Israeli children were imagining when Hamas fighters broke into their homes and found their hiding spots.

“It’s beyond my comprehension,” Biden said during his remarks. He also said Hamas was guilty of slaughtering Israelis: “They’ve committed evils that atrocities that make ISIS somewhat more rational.” 

The two left the conference without answering any questions. Biden will meet privately with the Israeli leaders.
