The US State Department will use artificial intelligence to revoke visas of foreign students who it perceives as supporters of Palestinian Hamas militants, Axios reported on Thursday, citing senior State Department officials.
WASHINGTON:
Fox News separately reported the State Department revoked the visa of a student who allegedly participated in what the department termed as "Hamas-supporting disruptions."
The revocation marked the first such action, according to the report. The State Department was working with the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security, according to Axios.
