US revokes nearly 1,500 student visas: Who are the targets?
Briefly

Since January 20, 2025, the Trump administration has revoked the visas of hundreds of students, predominantly those involved in pro-Palestine demonstrations that erupted in response to the Gaza war. These actions, which include arrests, have instilled fear and confusion among international students, particularly those sympathetic to Palestinian causes. Allegations of promoting anti-Semitism have been made against these individuals, but many activists refute these claims. Estimates of affected students vary significantly, with figures suggesting over 4,700 may face deportation, reflecting a troubling trend in immigration enforcement targeting specific political sentiments on campuses.
In a shocking turn of events, the Trump administration’s visa revocations have specifically targeted hundreds of students involved in pro-Palestine protests, leaving them stranded in uncertainty.
Among the students affected, many are grappling with the harsh consequences of visa cancellations that have disrupted their education and future opportunities significantly.
