The Gaza Impasse: A Familiar Pattern of Stalemate The recent visit by US envoy Jared Kushner to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem has highlighted the long standing impasse over Gaza.
Kushner's meeting with Netanyahu was likely an attempt to reiterate the US commitment to a 20 point plan to end the war in Gaza, agreed upon by Israel and Hamas last year.
This plan would see Israeli forces withdraw from Gaza as Hamas disarms, with an International Stabilisation Force working alongside a new Palestinian police force to secure the territory.
