Almost 100 arrested during protest occupying Trump Tower over Mahmoud Khalil

A group of protesters, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, occupied the lobby of Trump Tower in New York City, demanding the release of Mahmoud Khalil, a student and permanent resident of the United States. Khalil was targeted by the Trump administration for his involvement in pro-Palestine protests, with President Trump threatening to deport him on social media. The protesters, estimated to be around 100, were arrested, while others chanted slogans including "Free Mahmoud, free them all". The demonstration featured signs reading "Jews say stop arming Israel" and "Fight Nazis not students", highlighting the group's stance on Israel and their opposition to Khalil's deportation.
