The plans were reported earlier by Axios, which ​also said that Kushner was planning to meet mediators from Egypt, Qatar and Turkey ​as well next week in Cairo.

“We agree with the Israelis on the goal ⁠of disarming Hamas but they have expressed concerns which are valid and we have been ​working through them,” the source told Reuters, asking not to be identified.

The goal of a Kushner ​visit to Israel will be to “find a pathway to move forward with implementation of the 20 point plan” that Trump put forward for Gaza in late 2025, the source added.

Trump said in late July a deal was ​reached for the complete disarmament of Palestinian Hamas militants and other armed groups in Gaza.

Trump had ​said the deal would be carried out in phases, with Israeli forces withdrawing from Gaza as disarmament proceeded and ‌an International ⁠Stabilization Force working with a new Palestinian police force to secure the enclave.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is seeking re-election at a vote due in October, has publicly rejected Trump’s plan.

Hamas has said it agreed to the plan but the deal’s implementation would depend on Israel first ​meeting its own commitments, ​including withdrawal and halting attacks.

The ⁠Gaza ceasefire has been repeatedly violated, with more than 1,250 Palestinians, mostly civilians, being killed by Israeli attacks and four Israeli soldiers being killed ​by militants since the truce began in October, according to Gaza health ​officials and ⁠Israeli tallies, respectively. Hamas does not usually disclose its losses.

Gaza has been left devastated by an Israeli military assault that has killed tens of thousands, caused a hunger crisis, internally displaced Gaza’s entire population and ⁠led to ​assessments of genocide by rights experts, scholars and UN inquiries.

Israel has called its ​actions self-defence-led militants killed 1,200 people and took more than 250 hostages in an October 2023 attack.
