US Detains College Students Over Pro-Palestinian Activism
Tap title to read story
Federal agents have detained numerous college students and faculty members across the US, primarily those with pro-Palestinian views or criticism of Israel. These individuals, many holding valid visas, are facing deportation under the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed the revocation of over 300 visas, largely student visas, citing activities counter to US national interests. Detainees are accused of being threats to national security or having ties to organizations like Hamas, claims their legal teams dispute. Several cases are ongoing, with some judges temporarily blocking deportations while others continue to be held in Louisiana.
