According to a ProPublica report, 506 U.S. citizens have been detained by immigration agents during the Trump administration. More than 100 Americans were held after agents questioned their citizenship — nearly all were people of color. At least 70 American children and teens were detained, some of whom were handcuffed. Thirty-six Americans were held for at least a day without being able to contact a lawyer or their family. And roughly a dozen citizens were deported, mostly children. This comes as the Justice Department moved to strip citizenship from 40 naturalized citizens who have committed crimes.

Israel is marking three years since the Hamas-led surprise attack on October 7, 2023, that killed 1,200 people, with 251 Israelis and foreign nationals taken hostage.

During a moment of silence, the booms of Israeli airstrikes on the nearby Gaza Strip could be heard ringing out. Ahead of today’s anniversary, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presided over a state memorial ceremony in Jerusalem for those killed in the October 7 attacks.
