Jewish Students Chain Themselves to Protest Khalil Detention

A group of Jewish students at Columbia University chained themselves to the gates of St. Paul’s Chapel on the university grounds on Wednesday to protest the detention of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil.

The Columbia Palestine Solidarity Coalition posted on X: “We will not leave until our demand is met. Free Mahmoud Khalil. Free Palestine. @JVPColumbia.”

The students were demanding the university release the names of the trustees “who gave Mahmoud Khalil’s name to ICE,” referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
