Targeted for Gaza protests: The Palestinian still in US custody

Leqaa Kordia, a 32-year-old Palestinian woman, is the last remaining non-US citizen in custody following arrests at pro-Palestine campus protests. Her lawyers have filed for her immediate release, arguing she was targeted under a broader administration policy to suppress pro-Palestinian activism. The legal team cites new evidence from a separate case suggesting US authorities used the pro-Israel doxxing site Canary Mission to identify individuals for detention. While the Department of Homeland Security maintains Kordia was detained for an expired visa, her representatives argue this is a pretext for a politically motivated action against her First Amendment rights.
