Senior White House adviser Jared Kushner was leading a delegation from Israel to Morocco on Tuesday on the first known direct flight since the two countries agreed to establish full diplomatic ties earlier this month as part of a series of US-brokered normalization accords with Arab countries.

Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law, led the diplomatic push that saw the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco normalize relations with Israel in historic agreements that also brought them major favors from Washington.
"Regional transformation has officially begun," Kushner said Monday during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "We must continue to write new and exciting chapters and not revert to old thinking and failed ideas. The world is now changing fast and for the better."
