US to screen social media of visa applicants who spent time in Gaza

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has ordered a review of social media accounts for all foreign applicants who have visited Gaza since 2007, including those from NGOs. If derogatory information is found, applications will be investigated for potential national security risks. The Trump administration has already revoked visas of students criticizing Israel’s war on Gaza, and Trump is now in a dispute with Harvard University over campus policies and funding.
