Greenblatt and Kushner are in Israel to resume peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority. The two US officials will meet with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas tomorrow (Thursday).

The US delegation had previously met with the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar on their most recent visit to the Middle East this week.
