Kushner meets Hamas leadership

Barak Ravid details a ninety-minute meeting between Jared Kushner and Hamas leadership described as very productive. During the session, Hamas leaders reiterated their commitment to the disarmament and demilitarization of the Gaza Strip and asked that this message be conveyed directly to President Trump. They also expressed frustration regarding Israel's policy in Gaza, which includes continued strikes. In response, Kushner stated that if Israel is to take steps, Hamas must take concrete steps themselves. He emphasized that the bar for progress is high because the Israeli side does not believe they will actually disarm. Additionally, Kushner thanked the Hamas leaders for efforts to return the bodies of all Israeli hostages who died. The Hamas leadership reciprocated by thanking the Trump administration and the Peace Council for trying to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza. Afterward, Kushner spoke to Egyptian President El-Sisi, who noted that stabilizing Gaza would help stabilize the entire region.
