Detained Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil described what it was like to miss the birth of his son in new legal filings describing his detention and speaking out about the charges against him.
The Columbia graduate has been held in a Louisiana detention facility for months, fighting the Trump administration's attempts to deport him over his support of pro-Palestinian causes. In one of the many filings supporting Khalil's request for an injunction that would grant his release, he said missing his son's birth was one of the "most immediate and visceral harms" he'd suffered.
