President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff joined Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner in visiting and davening at the Kosel on Friday, just days after helping broker a historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
Speaking from the Kosel plaza, Witkoff told reporters he was “very happy” about the truce, which he said would “hopefully” see hostages released as early as Monday. “There will be peace, and lots of lives saved,” he added.
Witkoff and Kushner arrived in Israel on Thursday, a day after finalizing the ceasefire and hostage-release agreement in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
Trump is expected to join his daughter and son-in-law in Yerushalayim on Monday for a brief “in and out” visit, during which he will address the Knesset before returning to the United States, officials confirmed. The visit will coincide with the deadline for Hamas to release hostages under the U.S.-backed Gaza ceasefire deal.

Why do you have to post a picture of Ivanka?
It is nice that Kushner and Witkov found time to daven at the Kosel. However, I wonder why they are always looking spiffy wearing custom-made suits, but when they came to visit the holiest place on earth, the place of the Divine Presence, they are wearing casual or sporty clothes?
No one’s going to listen, but it needs to be said.
There is nothing of value in posting pictures of Ivanka on your “Yeshiva” website.
Every male who works for your site completely understands this, yet you guys don’t cut it our for some reason.
We will organize hundreds of rabbis that will prohibit watching and having anything to do with Yeshiva world sites if you don’t abide by the halacha

Whoever gets excited cuz they can see Ivanka should also wonder why they are getting excited. This is a news site and they are just posting relevant information. There is nothing wrong with these pictures. Your own head has issues thinking so deeply into it and getting excited. Go seek some help.
Elazer> why do they wear casual when they are on a trip jumping around the world? Why does every other bocher and girl wear casual when they are on a trip? Aren’t we a ben melech and should dress like a mentch?
