ICE arrests green card holders for Hamas support

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has begun arresting green card holders and visa holders, following Secretary of State Marco Rubio's announcement to deport individuals who support Hamas. This marks a shift in enforcement policy. Mahmoud Khalil, a green card holder and former Columbia University student protest leader, was arrested despite his legal status. His attorney claims ICE agents were aware of his residency but detained him anyway. Rubio's statement follows a broader directive from former President Trump aimed at curbing protests linked to anti-Semitism. Khalil's attorney has filed a petition challenging the legality of his detention, but his current whereabouts remain unknown.
