Jared Kushner, advisor to US President Donald Trump, stated that the recovery of the body of the "Israeli" police officer "Ran Gvili" from the Gaza Strip represents the end of one of the darkest chapters in the Middle East conflict. Kushner affirmed that for the first time since 2014, there are no longer any Israeli hostages held within the Strip.
Kushner clarified that all 20 living detainees, in addition to the bodies of 28 held hostages, described this development as an achievement that was previously considered "impossible."
He attributed this success to President Trump's leadership and intensive coordination between the US State Department's peace mission team, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in cooperation with the Egyptian General Intelligence Service, Turkey, and Qatar, in addition to collaborators from within Gaza.
Kushner noted that this cooperation built unprecedented levels of trust, considering the mission to help Gaza residents start a new chapter free from what he described as the "tyranny of Hamas" crucial to preventing further destruction for both the occupation and Palestinians.
He believed that achieving this would contribute to ending the hotbed of tension exploited to fuel antisemitism and division.
Kushner concluded his statements by emphasizing that the US administration is trying new approaches to achieve different results, saying: "This is an end, but it is also a new beginning," in reference to the direction towards redrawing the features of stability in the region.
This is an end, but it is also a new beginning.
