Hamas Leader Meets Egyptian Official Ahead of US Envoy Kushner's Middle East Visit
Hamas political leader Khalil al-Hayya is traveling to Cairo to meet Egyptian intelligence chief Hassan Rashad ahead of US envoy Jared Kushner's visit to Israel and Egypt. Kushner aims to bridge differences over a Gaza plan rejected by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which involves Hamas disarming and a phased Israeli withdrawal. Despite a ceasefire since October 2025, Israeli strikes continue in Gaza, with casualties reported. Hamas awaits pressure on Netanyahu to adhere to the roadmap, while negotiations continue amid ongoing violence.
