The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed on Monday that talks are underway between him and U.S. Special Envoy Jared Kushner, without providing further details. Netanyahu's office stated that he is currently meeting with Kushner in Jerusalem. It is expected that the meeting will discuss the situation of Hamas militants located behind the 'red line' in Rafah, an area still under the control of the Israeli army in the devastated sector. Israeli media reports indicate that Kushner's visit comes as Washington intensifies its efforts to ensure the continuation of the ceasefire reached through U.S. mediation, which took effect on October 10.
