Israel-Hamas

Soaring hunger in the Gaza Strip has shaken those with connections to the region as Israel looks to escalate its military operations.

He spent more than two weeks in federal detention before a federal judge ordered his release.

The arrests follow additional arrests during an anti-war demonstration at Columbia University this week.

Protesters pushed past security to occupy a library reading room, injuring two campus officers and prompting the school to call in the NYPD, officials said.

The student leader championed peace in Israel and Gaza and pushed back at antisemitism on campus, according to close associates.

The judge said she had no authority to challenge the secretary of state's determination that Khalil should be removed.

The secretary of state said allowing the protest leader to remain would "undermine U.S. policy to combat anti-Semitism around the world."

A group involved in campus protests is urging a judge to block the university from sharing disciplinary records with lawmakers.

A judge barred the government from taking the student, a permanent resident, into custody while she contests her removal.

Another green card holder faces deportation for alleged antiwar activities on campus.
