Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Palestinian activist involved in Columbia University protests against the Israel-Hamas war, was arrested in New York. His detention is seen as part of the Trump administration's efforts to target international students involved in antisemitic demonstrations. Khalil's lawyer reported threats against his pregnant wife and uncertainty about his detention location. The arrest was confirmed by a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson, who claimed Khalil had ties to Hamas without providing evidence. Critics argue this action is retaliatory against dissenting opinions. Khalil recently graduated with a master's in international affairs and played a key role in student negotiations during the protests. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
