Protesters are conducting a sit-in at Trump Tower in New York City to demand the release of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, who was detained by federal immigration agents. The demonstration, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, saw hundreds of people chanting and holding signs in support of Khalil’s release. Khalil, a Columbia University graduate and green card holder, was arrested by ICE agents and told his student visa was being revoked. The Department of Homeland Security alleged Khalil was involved with Hamas, a designated terrorist organization, but no evidence has been provided. The protest inside Trump Tower aimed to show solidarity with Khalil and oppose the authoritarian actions of the administration. Demonstrators emphasized the importance of standing together in the face of oppression and called for the Trump administration to release Khalil. The protest is ongoing, and updates are expected as the situation develops.
