"Deadly Gaza Hospital Blast Raises War Risk Amidst Biden's International Challenges"

A preliminary US intelligence assessment suggests that between 100 to 300 people were likely killed in the blast at the Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza, with only light structural damage reported. The assessment contradicts initial claims that Israel was responsible for the strike, stating that available reporting, including intelligence, missile activity, and open-source video and images, indicate that an errant rocket or missile launch by Palestine Islamic Jihad may have caused the explosion. The US intelligence community is still working to corroborate this information and determine the exact casualty figures. The Biden administration plans to share as much intelligence as possible about the incident.
