Senior U.S. adviser Jared Kushner says efforts to move forward on plans involving Gaza have stalled, pointing to the timing of upcoming Israeli elections. He links the lack of progress to political constraints that affect decision-making related to proposed steps around disarmament of Hamas and a pathway for economic investment tied to rebuilding Gaza.
The reports describe the U.S. push as focused on advancing an approach that would reduce military threats and help enable reconstruction. While they agree on the overall lack of momentum, they present Kushner’s election-timing explanation for why progress has not materialized as the central reason. CBS also frames the stalling as affecting both security discussions and investment prospects, emphasizing that U.S. efforts are not yet translating into concrete movement on the broader plan.
Across the outlets, the emphasis remains on the same central claim: that negotiations are not advancing and Kushner attributes the slowdown to Israeli electoral politics.
