US Immigration Authorities Detain Turkish Student Over Support for Palestinians

US immigration authorities have detained Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish doctoral student at Tufts University, and revoked her visa after she voiced support for Palestinians amid Israel’s war in Gaza. Ozturk, who had publicly expressed her stance on the ongoing conflict, is now facing uncertainty regarding her status in the United States. The incident has sparked controversy, with many questioning the implications for free speech and academic freedom. Tufts University and various advocacy groups are reportedly working to address the situation, calling for a review of her case and the broader impact on international students.
