Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. envoy Jared Kushner met on Monday to discuss the conditions for an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza. The two officials reached an understanding that an American general would be tasked with verifying the disarmament of Hamas as a prerequisite for any Israeli military exit from the territory. Netanyahu maintained that Israeli forces will remain in their current positions until this disarmament process is confirmed.
While the proposal for U.S. oversight of the disarmament process was a central topic of the discussions, reports indicate that the talks concluded without a formal agreement on a broader Gaza deal. The proposed verification mechanism remains a key component of the ongoing diplomatic efforts to address security concerns in the region.
