Mahmoud Khalil was arrested at his university-owned flat in New York on Saturday evening. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents threatened to arrest his wife, who is eight months pregnant, his lawyer says. The arrest marks a major development in the Trump administration’s pledge to arrest and deport international students involved in what it calls antisemitic campus demonstrations against Israel. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio took to X to say Khalil’s detention was just the start. “We will be revoking the visas and/or green cards of Hamas supporters in America so they can be deported,” he said on Sunday.
