Pro-Palestinian activist supporters rally at Columbia University

Supporters of Mahmoud Khalil rallied at Columbia University, marking one year since his detention by US immigration authorities for participating in pro-Palestinian campus protests. They are demanding an end to deportation efforts. Khalil, a Columbia graduate and legal US resident, was released on bail but his case continues. At the rally, he criticized the university for enabling a crackdown on pro-Palestine activism. Organizers also highlighted the continued detention of another Palestinian protester, Leqaa Kordia. https://www.trtworld.com/article/aeeff4a6e870
