Kushner Criticizes Israeli Operation in Doha, Links Gaza Policy to Elections
Jared Kushner, former US President Donald Trump's envoy, has sharply criticized an Israeli military operation in Doha, describing it as a "terrible act" that led to Israel's international isolation. Kushner stated that the operation failed and that the US leveraged this situation to push Israel towards a beneficial agreement. He claimed the outcome was ultimately excellent for both Israel and the residents of Gaza.
Kushner's remarks come as Qatar appears to be changing its approach to Hamas, moving from discreet ties to openly displaying its connections with the group's leadership. This shift was highlighted by a meeting between the Qatari Prime Minister and a senior Hamas official, Khalil al-Hayya, held at a government residence and publicized by the media.
Additionally, Kushner previously suggested that upcoming Knesset elections in Israel, scheduled for October 27, were influencing Israeli government decisions regarding Gaza, making them "somewhat irrational." He also indicated that his Middle East tour would include Egypt for negotiations, in addition to his planned visit to Israel.
