Columbia Student Mahmoud Khalil Faces Deportation Amid Pro-Palestinian Activism
Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil is currently facing deportation proceedings, sparking widespread support and protests in New York City. Khalil, a prominent pro-Palestinian activist, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following his participation in campus protests advocating for Palestinian rights. His arrest has ignited significant public outcry, with crowds gathering on the Upper West Side to rally in his support.
