Jared Kushner met with Hamas leaders in Egypt to discuss Gaza peace road map
Key Points:
- Jared Kushner met with Hamas leaders in Egypt to discuss a U.S.-backed peace deal focused on Hamas' disarmament and transferring governing authority to a new administration in Gaza.
- Kushner also met with Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Herzog, to establish working groups addressing Gaza's disarmament and public health issues.
- The peace plan aims to maintain the ceasefire, ensure Hamas relinquishes power and weapons, facilitate Israeli withdrawals, and deploy an international stabilization force in Gaza.
- Despite the U.S. declaring a historic agreement for Hamas' complete disarmament, Netanyahu has publicly rejected the plan, insisting no Israeli military withdrawal will occur until Hamas is genuinely disarmed.
- Regional powers like Saudi Arabia and the UAE condemned Israel’s rejection of the road map, urging immediate action to prevent obstruction of the peace plan's implementation.
