A statement from the party says the two will meet at the US embassy in Jerusalem next Monday.

Kushner, who is expected to be accompanied by new US peace envoy Avi Berkowitz and special envoy for Iran Brian Hook, is also expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Berkowitz is taking over from outgoing envoy Jason Greenblatt, who announced his departure in September.
