With Trump’s Hamas deal in peril, Jared Kushner set to visit Israel for Gaza talks

Trump's envoy and son-in-law seeks to revive Gaza disarmament plan rejected by Netanyahu

The visit, which was confirmed to Al Jazeera by a Board of Peace official, comes shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a Trump-backed 15-point plan for a lasting peace in the Palestinian enclave.

An official with the Board of Peace, the body Trump established to oversee the fragile ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, said Kushner, board high representative Nickolay Mladenov, and executive board member and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair would arrive in Israel on Sunday.

It comes as the White House and Trump's Board of Peace are trying to push forward with the next phase of the Gaza plan, which focuses on disarming Hamas and a potential Israeli withdrawal.
