Israel and militants blame each other for an explosion at a hospital compound in Gaza that Palestinian officials say killed hundreds shortly before President Biden's visit to Israel.
President Biden says U.S. defense officials have intelligence that backs Israel's understanding of the cause of the explosion at a hospital compound in Gaza—that the blast came from the Palestinian side.
Asked by a reporter what gave him confidence that Israel wasn't behind the explosion, Biden responded, 'The data I was shown by my Defense Department.' Biden had earlier said, alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, 'Based on what I've seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you.'
