Rubio says at least 300 foreign students’ visas have been revoked

At least 300 foreign student visas have been revoked for participating in pro-Palestine demonstrations, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Rubio emphasized that visas are intended for education, stating, 'We give you a visa to come and study and get a degree, not to become a social activist.'
Rubio mentioned, 'We revoked her visa,' referring to the Turkish student Rumeysa Ozturk after her arrest due to an article criticizing Israel.
The crackdown on student visas is part of a broader effort to address antisemitism and illegal immigration on college campuses.
