Kushner: We will not allocate any funds for reconstruction in areas still controlled by Hamas.

Jared Kushner, son-in-law of U.S. President Donald Trump, stated that the reconstruction of Gaza in areas controlled by the Israeli occupation army is "carefully planned."

Kushner explained during a press conference in Tel Aviv on Tuesday that "there are ongoing considerations in the area controlled by the occupation army as long as it can be secured, to begin construction as a 'new Gaza,' with the aim of providing Palestinians residing in the sector a place to go, work, and live."

The U.S. president's son-in-law added that the reconstruction will not include areas still controlled by Hamas, noting that several action plans from last year are currently being updated and will be presented to President Trump and the "Peace Council" for recommendations on what should be built and the phased implementation mechanism.
