Jared Kushner meets Hamas representatives in Egypt over Trump's Gaza plan
Jared Kushner, described as an adviser to U.S. President Donald Trump and Washington's representative, met with Hamas representatives in Egypt on August 16, 2026, according to Le Monde. The discussions focused on advancing the American roadmap outlining a transition in Gaza. Hamas had agreed to this roadmap in late July, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu officially rejected it. Kushner's presence in Israel on August 17 remains uncertain due to conflicting versions of a Le Monde headline.
