US President Joe Biden doubles down on his insistence that Israel was not behind yesterday’s Gaza hospital blast and that it was caused by an errant rocket fired by a Gaza terror group.

“I don’t say things like that unless I have faith in the source from which I’ve gotten it,” Biden tells reporters aboard Air Force One en route to Joint Base Andrews after his wartime visit to Israel.
