Federal immigration authorities have detained Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian graduate student and prominent activist involved in pro-Palestinian demonstrations at Columbia University. Khalil, who holds a U.S. permanent residency green card, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents at his university-owned residence near Columbia's Manhattan campus on Saturday night.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has accused Khalil of leading activities aligned with Hamas, a designated terrorist organization. This action is part of President Donald Trump's administration's broader initiative to deport international students. . .
