Israel isn’t backing down from plan to destroy Hamas

Arab leaders condemned a deadly explosion in Gaza, but Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated that Israel will continue targeting militants. The blast at a Gaza City hospital was caused by an errant rocket from Islamic Jihad, according to Israeli military evidence. Hamas claimed it was an Israeli airstrike. Arab leaders canceled a summit with US President Joe Biden in response. The explosion threatens Biden’s goal of bringing the Arab world to his point of view.
