Jared Kushner meets Hamas in Egypt to advance Gaza peace plan FAST-MOVING

Gaza peace plan Jared Kushner Hamas disarmament Israel-Hamas negotiations Middle East diplomacy

Jared Kushner, the U.S. special envoy, held high-level meetings in Egypt with Hamas leaders and mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey to advance a 15-point peace plan for the Gaza Strip. During the discussions, Hamas officials reaffirmed their commitment to the roadmap, which includes the disarmament of the group and the transition of Gaza's administration to a committee of Palestinian technocrats.

Kushner emphasized that the U.S. goal is to implement the existing plan rather than renegotiate it. He insisted on the total disarmament of Hamas and stated that the group should have no role in Gaza's future government. Crucially, the U.S. has signaled that Israeli military withdrawal could occur in parallel with the disarmament process, a point of contention with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Netanyahu has previously rejected the roadmap, demanding that Hamas complete its disarmament before any Israeli forces withdraw from the territory. Following these diplomatic efforts, Kushner is scheduled to meet with Netanyahu in Israel to discuss the proposal. Meanwhile, several regional powers have issued statements criticizing Israel for obstructing peace efforts.
