Trump's team meets Hamas - Israel attacks Gaza

Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner met with the new Hamas leader Khalil al-Hayya in Cairo on Sunday. AFP reports. Kushner pressed Hamas to demonstrate that it is giving up its weapons, as the group has promised in previous negotiations on Trump's peace plan, a source told the news agency.

On Monday, Kushner and his delegation will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has called the peace plan "unacceptable," according to Reuters.

According to the plan, Israel will immediately cease its military operations in Gaza and Hamas will disarm. Israel will then withdraw from the area and a new civilian Palestinian administration will rebuild it.

Israel has resumed its airstrikes in recent days. The military says they are aimed at preventing terrorist attacks. Several people were injured, including in a tent camp.

Mediating countries condemn Israel's rejection of peace plan

Eight Muslim countries have condemned Israel's rejection of the peace plan that Donald Trump has presented for Gaza, according to AFP. Among them are the three mediating countries Egypt, Turkey and Qatar.

"Israel bears direct and full responsibility for all consequences of its continued rejection, obstruction, delay or failure to implement the peace plan," they wrote in the statement, according to the Times of Israel.

During the day, the mediating countries have participated in talks between Trump's envoy Jared Kushner and Hamas, and tomorrow they are expected to meet Israel, according to Reuters.
