Jared Kushner, U.S. President Donald Trump’s envoy and son-in-law, met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Monday after holding talks with Hamas leaders in Egypt to revive a stalled Gaza peace plan.

The meeting followed Kushner’s Sunday discussion in El-Alamein with Hamas’s new leader, Khalil al-Hayya, where Kushner demanded the group verify it is disarming and renounce any future governing role in Gaza, according to sources cited by AFP . Hamas officials told AFP the group remains committed to the plan and is pressing the U.S. to compel Netanyahu’s government to implement it .

Netanyahu has publicly rejected the 15-point U.S. roadmap, insisting any settlement must ensure Hamas is “genuinely disarmed,” as reported by Euronews and AFP . The Trump administration’s Board of Peace, which oversees the plan, includes Nickolay Mladenov and former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair, both present at Monday’s talks, according to Israeli media and AP sources .

Trump has urged Israel to halt strikes on Gaza, the Wall Street Journal reported, as Kushner pushes for progress on the plan . The plan’s second phase, backed by Hamas two weeks ago, remains blocked by Netanyahu’s demands. Regional powers, including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Jordan, and Pakistan, issued a joint statement Sunday condemning Israel’s rejection, declaring it “bears responsibility for obstructing peace efforts” .

Meanwhile, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir publicly called for “30 to 40” Palestinians to be killed nightly in Gaza, stating in a podcast with former hostage Rom Braslavski that some “are not worthy of life” and “are not even people,” according to multiple outlets . The remarks drew sharp criticism from Elie Rosen, president of the Israelitische Kultusgemeinde, who called Ben-Gvir “a disgrace to the Jewish people and the state of Israel” . Iran’s deputy foreign minister, Kasem Gharibabadi, also condemned the comments on X, accusing Ben-Gvir of advocating for Palestinian expulsion and settlement expansion .

Kushner’s diplomatic push comes as Netanyahu faces tight October elections, with polls suggesting a competitive race. The Trump administration has increasingly engaged directly with Hamas, a group the U.S. classifies as terrorist, including negotiating an October 2025 ceasefire that secured the release of remaining Israeli hostages .
