On August 14th, according to foreign media citing a US official, Jared Kushner, President Donald Trumps son-in-law and peace envoy, plans to travel to Israel next week for talks on the Gaza situation. This comes as the US continues its diplomatic efforts to make progress on its long-delayed peace plan.
