An Iranian University of Alabama doctoral student was detained early Wednesday by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials.

University of Alabama officials have confirmed to Fox News Digital on Wednesday the identity of a doctoral student, whom the university’s newspaper named as Alireza Doroudi.

In January, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to revoke the student visas of Hamas supporters due to an “unprecedented wave of vile anti-Semitic discrimination, vandalism, and violence against our citizens, particularly in our schools and on our campuses.”

Tufts is receiving $115.2 million in funds from the National Institutes of Health as of fiscal year 2025, according to the university’s website.

The University of Alabama received $143 million in federal grants, according to its 2023-24 Annual Financial Report.

The DHS and ICE did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on Doroudi’s detainment.
