US President Joe Biden arrived in Israel this Wednesday, just hours after the attack on an Anglican hospital in Gaza, which left two hundred dead, according to the Palestinian movement Hamas. The Hebrew State attributes responsibility for the act to Islamic Jihad.

An attack on a hospital in Gaza, which took place this Wednesday, October 18th, which according to health officials, killed at least 200 people, provoked a wave of indignation and condemnation around the world, with protests in the streets of Amman, Tunis, Beirut and Tehran.
