A former senior official from Fatah claims that Jared Kushner, ex-advisor to Donald Trump, assured him that Israel would cease attacks in Gaza. The official stated Kushner conveyed this message during a recent communication. Details regarding the nature of the communication and Kushner’s specific role remain unclear. This claim suggests potential back-channel diplomacy aimed at de-escalating tensions in the region. It is currently unknown whether the situation on the ground will reflect this alleged promise. The claim’s validity and potential impact on the ongoing conflict are yet to be seen, with observers awaiting a response from all involved parties. The statement raises questions about ongoing US efforts in the Israeli-Palestinian arena.
