By Alexander Cornwell JERUSALEM, Aug 17 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's envoy and son-in-law Jared Kushner left Jerusalem on Monday without a breakthrough after two days of talks with Israeli and Hamas leaders over a stalled U.

The State Department informed Congress of its intent to fund the stabilization force on the same day the president’s Board of Peace announced a plan to disarm Hamas.

The rare meeting comes a week after Israel rejected Donald Trump's peace plan for Gaza.

Iran's president pledged continued support to Hamas' new leader even as Trump promotes his landmark Gaza disarmament deal and Board of Peace roadmap.

Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and envoy, held talks with Hamas leaders in Egypt in an effort to revive a stalled ceasefire in Gaza. The meeting comes after Israel rejected a 15-point peace plan proposed by America last week.

CNN's Boris Sanchez was shocked to hear Rep. Jimmy Patronis (R-FL) of accusing his opponent, former Green Beret John Frankman, of being a pro-Hamas candidate.

President Donald Trump announced what he called a historic agreement to completely disarm Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza as part of a broader peace initiative.

Negotiators implementing the Gaza cease-fire plan and Iran-backed Hamas reached a disarming framework for the Palestinian enclave on Thursday.

President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and envoy Jared Kushner was meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday after rare talks with the leader of Hamas, in a new push to revive the peace plan for Gaza that Israel has rejected.
