Jared Kushner to Visit Israel and Egypt Next Week with Board of Peace Officials to Talk Gaza
The visit could advance Trump’s 15-point Gaza plan as U.S. officials press Netanyahu on Gaza, the West Bank and settler violence.
- U.S. special envoy Jared Kushner and Gaza Board of Peace CEO Nickolay Mladenov are planning to visit Israel for talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on President Donald Trump's 15-point Gaza plan.
- Netanyahu publicly rejected the 15-point document during a weekly Cabinet meeting, vowing that the IDF would not carry out any withdrawal from the Gaza Strip until Hamas is disarmed.
- Beyond the Gaza plan, the agenda likely includes rising settler violence in the West Bank, where U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee recently condemned Jewish rioters in Qusra as "Israeli terrorists."
- Although the visit has not been finalized, it could occur next week, with an official stating the United States and Israel "share many other areas of agreement and mutual concerns that we will work through together."
- Kushner's potential visit coincides with the sixth anniversary of the Abraham Accords, as he wrote on X that "the Middle East once again stands at an inflection point" regarding peace opportunities.
