• After those on the political Left quickly repeated claims from the Gaza Health Ministry that Israel bombed the hospital, misinformation began to circulate on social media and in newsrooms throughout the world, leading to the cancellation of the meeting with President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, King Abdullah of Jordan, and President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi of Egypt.

Hundreds of people were killed after a missile fired by Palestinian terrorists malfunctioned and struck a hospital in Gaza, forcing Arab leaders to postpone a meeting with President Joe Biden for later this week.

After those on the political Left quickly repeated claims from the Gaza Health Ministry that Israel bombed the hospital, misinformation began to circulate on social media and in newsrooms throughout the world, leading to the cancellation of the meeting with President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, King Abdullah of Jordan, and President Abdel Fattah Al Sisi of Egypt.

Subsequently, Israel claimed that more than 500 purported deaths at the hospital were caused by the terrorist organization Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

The IDF said in a statement that "a barrage of rockets was launched toward Israel, which passed in the vicinity of the hospital, when it was hit, following an analysis by the IDF's operational systems." "The unsuccessful rocket launch that struck the hospital is the result of terrorist organization Islamic Jihad, according to intelligence information we have from multiple sources.”

The news that the meeting was called off arrived just as Biden was taking off on Air Force One to travel to Israel.

In a statement he later issued regarding the incident, Biden expressed his shock and sadness over the explosion that occurred at the Al Ahli Arab hospital in Gaza as well as the horrific number of people that died as a result.

He remarked, "As soon as I heard this news, I spoke with Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel and King Abdullah II of Jordan. I have also instructed my national security team to continue obtaining details about what exactly happened." "The patients, medical personnel, and other innocents killed or wounded in this tragedy are mourned. The United States stands unequivocally for the protection of civilian life during conflict."
