Might it have been a good place to meet since this is what Kushner hopes Gaza could look like?

Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and a real estate developer, on Thursday unveiled some of the Trump administration’s “master plan” for rebuilding war-torn Gaza that includes waterfront developments and other luxury buildings.
Kushner, whop spoke alongside President Donald Trump at his Board of Peace signing in Davos, Switzerland, said the plans for Gaza will emulate what other newly redeveloped Middle Eastern cities will look like.

And Kushner, in the setting of New Alamein, met with Khalil al-Hayya:
The over-two-hour meeting in Egypt with Hamas’s political chief, Khalil al-Hayya, was confirmed by a regional official and a Hamas official, both speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to reporters. Kushner was one of a trio of envoys meeting with al-Hayya, with officials from mediating countries Egypt, Qatar and Turkey also there.
Hamas in a statement later called on mediators and the US-created Board of Peace overseeing the ceasefire to “compel” Israel to approve the roadmap for next steps.
Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, last week rejected the 15-point plan in a rare public show of defiance against the Trump administration, Israel’s closest ally.
Kushner; Tony Blair, the former British prime minister; and Nickolay Mladenov, the Board of Peace director, are to meet with Netanyahu on Monday, according to a source familiar with the plans and a diplomatic source. Both spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a closed-door meeting.

New El-Alamein City, as it’s officially known, is being hailed as the “new face” of the Egyptian Riviera — a year-round coastal hub with pristine white-sand beaches, turquoise waters and average November temperatures of around 24°C. The ambitious development promises to transform Egypt’s North West Coast into a magnet for global tourism and modern urban living.

Egypt’s Cabinet has approved the establishment of a special free zone for Fujairah Alamein Oil and Gas Company LLC to store and trade crude oil and petroleum products in New Alamein City, according to Cabinet Resolution No. 65 of 2026.
The 737,914.9-square-meter zone will be located south of the Alexandria-Matrouh Coastal Road in Matrouh Governorate.
Its northern boundary extends for 1,069.80 meters along the Alexandria-Matrouh Coastal Road, while its southern boundary spans 745.50 meters along the M15 Road, which is 49.20 meters wide and under construction.
The eastern boundary spans 912.20 meters alongside vacant land, while the western boundary runs for 823.40 meters beside the expansion area of El Hamra Port.
Under the resolution, the company must export no less than 100% of its annual production and ensure that the local component accounts for at least 50% of its products.
The company is also required to submit an approved title deed for the project site and secure the Egyptian Environmental Affairs Agency’s (EEAA) approval.
It must comply with industrial security, civil defense, and fire safety requirements under the applicable Egyptian code or decisions issued by the Minister of Industry concerning industrial facilities.
The company will also be responsible for securing the special free zone and its boundaries through guard towers and surveillance cameras at its own expense.
The General Authority for Investment and Free Zones (GAFI) will oversee the zone’s activities, monitor its operations, and verify compliance with the applicable requirements and procedures.
Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly issued the resolution on August 18, 2026, following the Cabinet’s approval and a proposal submitted by the Minister of Investment and Foreign Trade. The resolution was issued under Investment Law No. 72 of 2017 and its executive regulations and will be published in the Official Gazette.
And, Lest We Forget, World War 2 history:
Battles of El-Alamein, linked battles in World War II, fought from July 1–27 and October 23—November 11, 1942, pitting German and Italian against British, Australian, New Zealander, South African, and Indian forces in coastal central Egypt and resulting in a pivotal Allied victory. After the First Battle of El-Alamein, Egypt (150 miles west of Cairo), ended in a stalemate, the second one was decisive. It marked the beginning of the end for the Axis in North Africa. The charismatic Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was comprehensively defeated by the British Eighth Army, and Allied material superiority meant that he had little chance of rallying his broken forces.
