Kushner to visit Israel to discuss Trump's Gaza plan

Kushner to visit Israel to discuss Trump's Gaza plan US President Donald Trump's envoy and son-in-law Jared Kushner will visit Israel next week to discuss Trump's Gaza plan recently rejected by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, officials said on Friday. Kushner and Nickolay Mladenov, the high representative for Gaza of Trump's so-called Board of Peace implementing the deal, will visit both Israel and key mediator Egypt. The trip comes after Netanyahu publicly rejected the 15-point plan announced by Mladenov in which Hamas agreed to hand over its weapons to a new Palestinian governing committee in Gaza.
