On October 19, U.S. President Joe Biden backed Israel's assessment that a misfire by the Islamic Jihad militant group caused the blast.

The Islamic Jihad, a rival militant group of Hamas, has denied responsibility for the attack, calling the accusations "false and baseless.".

Citing U.S. intelligence, a spokesperson for the National Security Council said that an analysis of open-source information, intercepts and overhead imagery suggest Israel was "not responsible.".

Both Palestinian and Arab leaders have claimed the hospital was struck amid Israel's ongoing airstrikes on Gaza.

According to the Hamas-controlled Health Ministry in Gaza, hundreds of people are believed to have been killed in the attack, which has sparked protests across the region.

Intelligence indicates that some Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip believed that the explosion was likely caused by an errant rocket or missile launch carried out by Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).

The militants were still investigating what had happened, Adrienne Watson, National Security Council spokesperson, via CNN.

However, CNN reports that numerous countries have urged caution in attributing blame until investigations are complete and the circumstances of the attack are made clear.

The United Nations has called for an independent investigation of the deadly incident
