US court says student activist Rumeysa Ozturk must be sent to Vermont

The Trump administration faces setbacks in its efforts to deport foreign students protesting Israel's policies. Two high-profile cases involving Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk are being processed, with Khalil facing deportation from Louisiana while his case is heard locally, and Ozturk being transferred from New Jersey to Vermont despite Trump administration appeals. Both cases highlight challenges in enforcing immigration laws remotely and disputes over the legal basis for detaining students without concrete evidence. The administration's use of a rarely invoked 1952 law to justify deporting pro-Palestinian students has raised concerns about suspect justification and due process.
