Kushner Meets With Hamas Representatives in Egypt to Advance Trump's Gaza Plan
White House adviser Jared Kushner has met with representatives of Hamas in Egypt as part of efforts to advance President Trump's plan for Gaza, according to several officials.
Jared Kushner, an adviser to President Trump, has held talks with representatives of the armed Palestinian group Hamas in Egypt, according to several officials familiar with the meeting.
The talks were aimed at moving forward with the plan the Trump administration has put forward regarding the Gaza Strip. Egypt has long served as a key venue for mediation efforts related to the Gaza conflict, and it continued that role in this latest round of diplomatic engagement.
Kushner, who has previously been involved in Middle East diplomatic efforts, met directly with Hamas representatives this time, signaling an attempt to secure further progress on implementing the proposed plan.
The available information does not specify further details about the content of the discussions, who else took part, or what outcomes, if any, were reached. It is also unclear exactly when the meeting took place or whether additional talks are expected to follow.
The development suggests the Trump administration continues to pursue direct channels of communication with Hamas, using Egypt as an intermediary, in its efforts to advance its proposed resolution for the situation in Gaza.
