Middle East Crisis: Jordan Cancels Biden Summit, Israel Prepares for Invasion, Gaza Hospital Blast Kills Hundreds
TL;DR Summary
Jordan has cancelled a summit with US President Joe Biden, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el Sisi, and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, citing the need for parties to agree on ending the "war and massacres against Palestinians." Biden will now only visit Israel and postpone his travel to Jordan. The cancellation comes after a blast at a Gaza hospital that killed around 500 Palestinians, with Jordan's King Abdullah blaming Israel and calling for an end to its military assault. Failure to meet with Palestinian officials could undermine Biden's diplomatic message, drawing criticism at home and abroad.
