Biden suggests attack to thwart India-Middle East corridor

US President Joe Biden suggested that Hamas launched the recent terror attack on Israel to sabotage the India-Middle East-Europe economic corridor, which was formalized at the G20 summit. The corridor aims to connect India with Europe via UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel through a rail network. Biden believes that the attack was an attempt to disrupt the progress towards regional integration. Israel has called on India to designate Hamas as a terrorist group.
