After ruling, US student released from detention facility, allowed into Israel
US student Lara Alqasem is released from the detention facility at Ben Gurion Airport, where she was held for over two weeks, and allowed to enter Israel.
The step comes after the Supreme Court accepted Alqasem’s appeal against Israel’s intention to deport her over her past membership in Students for Justice in Palestine, which supports the BDS boycott movement against Israel.
