Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian graduate student from Columbia University, has been detained by U.S. immigration authorities for his role in pro-Palestinian protests. He has described himself as a 'political prisoner' and compared his detention to the experiences of many Palestinians facing imprisonment without due process. His arrest has sparked nationwide protests, including demonstrations in New York and Boston, as well as a brief occupation of Trump Tower.

The case has become a flashpoint in the broader debate over immigration policies and political activism in the country.
