Kushner to hold talks with Netanyahu after rare meeting with Hamas
Kushner urged Hamas to commit to disarmament steps as the Trump-backed plan remains stalled and Israel resists the proposed Gaza roadmap.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump's envoys Jared Kushner and Nickolay Mladenov met with Egyptian, Qatari, and Turkish mediators in Cairo to advance the administration's Gaza peace plan as Israeli airstrikes continued.
- Trump's roadmap envisions Hamas disarming and Israeli withdrawal, but an October ceasefire failed to end fighting entirely. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the plan 'unacceptable' on August 9.
- Israeli aircraft struck militants in Khan Younis and Nuseirat on Sunday, wounding several people, according to medics. The operations follow a resumption of airstrikes earlier this month after a temporary lull.
- Hamas called on mediators to compel Israel to fulfill ceasefire obligations, while five Arab nations, Turkey, Pakistan, and Indonesia condemned Israel's rejection of the peace plan as threatening Trump's efforts.
- Kushner and Mladenov are scheduled to meet Netanyahu on Monday to address the impasse. Netanyahu's Likud party claims regional opposition aims to install political rivals who would 'give them everything that they want.
