Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and envoy, reportedly met with Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya in Egypt on Sunday, according to sources cited by the Associated Press. The meeting occurred as Kushner attempts to advance the Trump administration’s peace plan for Gaza, a proposal that has already been rejected by Israel. Kushner is currently in Cairo seeking to garner support for the plan. He is scheduled to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu alongside UN envoy Nickolay Mladenov on Monday. The purpose of the meetings is to discuss the US peace initiative and potentially navigate ongoing obstacles to its implementation. This engagement with Hamas represents a notable, albeit discreet, step in Kushner’s efforts. The details of the conversation with al-Hayya have not been disclosed.
