National Unity party leader Benny Gantz met last week with US President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and former senior adviser Jared Kushner during his visit to the US, Walla reports.

The outlet says the two spoke of Trump’s plans for Israeli normalization with Saudi Arabia, as well as the political situation in Israel. Kushner does not have an official position in the new administration.

Walla says Kushner and Gantz declined to comment on the meeting.
