Russian #scientist from #Harvard Medical School detained by #ICE
Cora Anderson, a friend & colleague of #KseniyaPetrova, shared the news of Petrova’s detention, saying Petrova arrived at #Boston’s Logan airport on 16 Feb from a trip to France when she was stopped by US authorities who revoked her #visa & told her she was to be deported to #Russia. In response, Petrova said she feared political persecution & was then sent to a #detention facility.
