Trump to cancel visas for pro-Hamas students

TEHRAN, Jan. 30 (MNA) – US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to deport non-citizen college students and others who took part in pro-Palestinian protests against Israel.

“I will also quickly cancel the student visas of all Hamas sympathizers on college campuses, which have been infested with radicalism like never before,” the US president said, echoing a 2024 campaign promise.

Rights groups and legal scholars said the measure would violate constitutional free speech rights and would likely draw legal challenges.
