Here’s the latest on the war.
As outrage grew over a blast that ripped through a hospital in Gaza, American and Israeli intelligence said early evidence showed the deadly blast was caused by an errant rocket fired by Palestinian fighters.

Making a rare wartime visit to Israel on Wednesday, President Biden firmly backed the Israeli’s government’s assertion that it had nothing to do with the deadly explosion. “Based on what I’ve seen, it appears as though it was done by the other team, not you,” he said, appearing...
