On Wednesday, US President Joe Biden accused Palestinian resistance factions of being behind the Al-Ahly Baptist Hospital massacre in the Gaza Strip.

Biden said during a joint press conference with Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after his arrival in Tel Aviv: “I was sad and angry about the explosion in the Baptist Hospital yesterday.”

Addressing Netanyahu, he added: “It seems that the other side is behind this, not you,” referring to the resistance factions in the Gaza Strip.

The American President stressed his country's determination to ensure that the occupying state has what it needs to respond to the attacks of the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.

He stressed that his visit to the occupying state came "so that the people there and in the entire world know that we stand with Israel," claiming that Hamas "committed atrocities against Israel," as he put it.

For his part, Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “Biden’s visit is the first by an American president during a time of war,” pointing out that “today’s level of cooperation with the United States is unprecedented.”

Addressing Biden, he added: “I know that you share our determination to recover those kidnapped by Hamas.”

The US President's visit comes after the cancellation of the Quartet summit, which was scheduled to be held in the Jordanian capital, Amman, with the participation of the United States, Egypt, the Palestinian Authority, and Jordan, against the backdrop of the Israeli occupation bombing of the Baptist Hospital in Gaza, which resulted in more than 500 martyrs and hundreds injured.

Since October 7, the Israeli occupation has continued its aggression against the Gaza Strip, in an attempt to exterminate all forms of life in the Strip and forcibly displace its population by deliberately targeting residential areas and neighborhoods, in addition to convoys of displaced persons and medical service providers.

In a toll likely to rise, the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced that the death toll from the aggression had risen to more than 3,200 martyrs and about 11,000 people with various injuries, most of them children and women.
