Jared Kushner, President Trump’s envoy, sat down with Hamas leaders in Egypt on Sunday to push the group to follow through on its promise to disarm. This information is based on two sources familiar with the meeting who spoke to the publication Axios. This marked Kushner’s first direct meeting with Hamas leadership since the agreement to end the war in Gaza was signed last October. The rare sit down happened as the White House, working through Trump’s Board of Peace, tries to push both Hamas and Israel toward the next stage of the US brokered 20 point peace plan.
