Columbia student's wife demands his release in New York
Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University student and legal resident, was arrested by ICE agents in front of his pregnant wife. He is accused of activities linked to Hamas but has not been charged with any crime. Protests in support of Khalil occurred in New York City and other locations, leading to several arrests. His wife called for his release, describing the past week as a "nightmare" and expressing concern for their unborn child. The Trump administration has threatened to revoke Khalil's green card and recently cut funding to Columbia University over its handling of campus protests. Lawyers are expected to challenge his deportation in a hearing on Wednesday.
