TL;DR Summary

President Joe Biden pledged $100 million in humanitarian assistance for Gaza and the West Bank, following a deadly hospital blast in Gaza. Biden blamed the blast on militants in Gaza and reaffirmed America's commitment to Israel. He also announced plans to seek an "unprecedented support package for Israel's defense" and warned Hamas against commandeering the aid. The scheduled meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and other regional leaders was called off. The U.S. vetoed a Russian resolution on humanitarian assistance in Gaza for failing to mention Israel's right of self-defense.
