U.S. President Joe Biden has demanded more information from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu following allegations made by Hamas regarding a mass grave discovered on a hospital compound in Gaza. The allegations, which have been disputed by Israeli officials, have drawn concern from the international community.
Israeli government spokesman Avi Hyman stated that Hamas has a long history of disseminating falsehoods, condemning the organization's "copy and paste" tactics employed by some news outlets for sensationalism. Middle East expert Tom Gross echoed this sentiment, highlighting Hamas's "track record of fabricating the truth."

Experts have pointed to social media evidence suggesting the mass grave was excavated by Gazans months ago, not by Israeli forces. They also question Hamas's distinction between combatants and civilians in its conflicts with Israel, leading to inflated death toll reports.
Hospitals are protected under international law, but experts emphasize that this status is lost when medical facilities are converted into military sites. Hamas is known to use hospitals as de facto military installations, according to sources.

U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan expressed concern about the mass grave allegations, calling for a thorough and transparent investigation. He emphasized that the Biden administration wants answers.
Hamas is accused of holding over 100 hostages, including Americans, in its stronghold in Rafah. Experts suggest that Hamas uses medical compounds to detain these hostages.

The Israeli Prime Minister's Office has strongly refuted Hamas's claims, labeling them a "disinformation campaign." Israeli officials maintain that the bodies in the mass grave were buried by Palestinians during previous conflicts.
The United Nations' human rights chief has expressed shock over the mass grave reports, while Israel's mission in Geneva criticized the UN for not calling for the release of hostages in Gaza.
Critics have raised concerns over the mainstream media's handling of the allegations, highlighting the amplification of unverified information sourced from Hamas. The Times of Israel reported that evidence suggests the mass grave is not linked to Israeli actions.
Fox News Digital's inquiries to the IDF and the State Department remain unanswered. The situation continues to develop, with investigations and international attention focused on the truth behind the mass grave allegations.
