(CNN) — Jared Kushner participated in President Donald Trump’s meeting at the White House on Wednesday about a plan for post-war Gaza, two sources familiar with the matter said, as the White House looks for ways to bring the nearly two-year conflict to an end.
Kushner, who is Trump’s son-in-law and was an influential adviser during his first administration, has quietly advised administration officials on Middle East issues since Trump returned to office in January. He doesn’t hold an official role inside the White House.
One of the areas Kushner has been discussing with current administration officials is what will happen to Gaza once Israel’s war is over, one of the sources said. Those discussions were expected to continue during Wednesday’s meeting.
