Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem on April 16 threatened to revoke Harvard University’s ability to enroll foreign students, and announced that DHS was pulling $2.7 million in grants from the school.

Noem tied the decision to Harvard’s response to the pro-Palestinian protests at the school that began after Israel’s military operation targeting Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip in response to the group’s attacks on southern Israel in October 2023.
