The United States is considering dispatching presidential envoy Jared Kushner to Israel as President Donald Trump advances a Gaza peace plan, according to Al-Monitor. A U.S. official confirmed Thursday that Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and longtime mediator, may travel to the region to facilitate discussions on the proposed initiative.
Kushner has served as a key diplomatic figure in Trump's Middle East strategy, leading previous negotiations on Israeli-Palestinian matters. His potential deployment underscores the administration's effort to engage directly with Israeli leadership on resolving the Gaza conflict. Axios first reported the possibility of Kushner's involvement in the developing plan.
