President Joe Biden has accused Hamas of committing a war crime for operating underground Hamas command centers in some hospitals in Gaza Strip.
"You have a circumstance where the first war crime is being committed by Hamas by having their headquarters, their military hidden under a hospital. And that's a fact. That's what's happened," Biden said while responding to a reporter's question during a joint news conference with Chinese leader Xi Jinping after their summit in San Francisco.
