A Palestinian woman, Leqaa Kordia, was hospitalized after suffering a seizure while in United States immigration detention, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Kordia, who was detained while seeking legal residency, has not had her family or legal team updated on her health status by authorities. Rights groups have criticized the conditions in immigration detention centers, describing them as inhumane, while the federal government disputes these claims. Kordia, whose family has suffered significant losses in the Israel-Hamas war, has been active in pro-Palestinian protests and alleges she was targeted for her activism. The current administration has intensified actions against pro-Palestinian demonstrators, prompting concerns from rights advocates about free speech and due process.
