President Donald Trump took executive action on Wednesday to ban travel from a dozen countries and place partial restrictions on travel from seven more.

The memorandum directs to “fully restrict and limit” travel from Afghanistan, Burma, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. Partial travel restrictions will be placed on Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela.

“The United States must ensure that admitted aliens and aliens otherwise already present in the United States do not bear hostile attitudes toward its citizens, culture, government, institutions, or founding principles, and do not advocate for, aid, or support designated foreign terrorists or other threats to our national security,” the memorandum says.

The directive is set to take effect on Monday.

“The restrictions and limitations imposed by this proclamation are, in my judgment, necessary to prevent the entry or admission of foreign nationals about whom the United States Government lacks sufficient information to assess the risks they pose to the United States,” the memorandum states.

Trump’s order says that the targeted countries have failed to build adequate “information-sharing and identity-management procedures” and that immigration from some of the countries can increase the risk of terrorism in the United States.

“Nationals of some countries also pose significant risks of overstaying their visas in the United States, which increases burdens on immigration and law enforcement components of the United States, and often exacerbates other risks related to national security and public safety,” the memorandum says.

In a video posted to his Truth Social account, Trump cited the recent attack in Boulder, Colorado, on a demonstration in support of hostages in Gaza. According to authorities, that attack was carried out by an Egyptian national who was in the country illegally after overstaying his visa.

The Boulder attack “underscored the extreme dangers posed to our country by the entry of foreign national who are not properly vetted, as well as those who come here as temporary visitors and overstay their visas,” Trump said, adding, “we don’t want them!”

The president issued a similar order during his first term banning almost all travel from Iran, Syria, Yemen, Libya, and Somalia. He also placed restrictions on travel from North Korea and banned government officials from Venezuela.

After a legal fight, the Supreme Court voted 5-4 to uphold Trump’s travel ban, which Trump at the time called “a tremendous victory for the American People and the Constitution.”

“In this era of worldwide terrorism and extremist movements bent on harming innocent civilians, we must properly vet those coming into our country,” Trump said in a statement at the time. “This ruling is also a moment of profound vindication following months of hysterical commentary from the media and Democratic politicians who refuse to do what it takes to secure our border and our country.”

The Israel Defense Forces says it is “prepared” to respond to the so-called “Freedom Flotilla” en route to Gaza with radical leftist Greta Thunberg. 

“For this case as well, we are prepared,” Brigadier General Effie Defrin, an Israeli army spokesman, told The Times of London. “We have gained experience in recent years, and we will act accordingly.”

The 22-year-old Thunberg and 11 other left-wing activists are currently in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea on a 59-foot boat that is en route to Gaza with what they say is critical humanitarian aid.

“Because the moment we stop trying is when we lose our humanity. And no matter how dangerous this mission is, it’s not even near as dangerous as the silence of the entire world in the face of the livestreamed genocide,” Thunberg said before setting sail.

The United Kingdom-registered vessel, the Madleen, departed from Catania, Sicily on June 1, and will attempt to challenge an Israeli sea blockade.

The vessel plans to arrive on June 7, though it is unlikely that the IDF will allow the boat anywhere near Gaza.

Other activists on board include a French member of the European Parliament, Rima Hassan, and “Game of Thrones” actor Liam Cunningham.

This is the Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s second attempt to sail to Gaza. Its last, larger vessel was attacked and disabled before arriving in Malta to pick up Thunberg last month. It was later reportedly towed to Libya. The group accuses the IDF of the attack, though the IDF has not taken responsibility.

Unlike its last mission, the flotilla has been publicly broadcasting its location to drum up publicity, even posting videos claiming that a drone had visited it.

“There’s a drone on top of our ship,” Thiago Avila, another passenger said in a video. “If this is an attack, we need your support.”

Avila was in attendance at the funeral of former Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, The Jerusalem Post reported.

The flotilla later said the drone was part of the Hellenic Coast Guard.

The activist passengers hail from several countries including Germany, Spain, France, Brazil, the Netherlands, Turkey, and Sweden.

Thunberg, known for her long history of dramatic publicity stunts, was mocked by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-GA) who posted “Hope Greta and her friends can swim!” on X.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations called Graham’s post as “inhumane and reckless” and said it “could be interpreted by Israel as a green light for more violence against unarmed civilians.”

The small vessel’s attempt to deliver food, diapers, medical supplies, and other aid comes as the Trump administration-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation successfully delivered more than 7 million meals to Gazans, according to the organization.

The group has been tasked with implementing President Trump’s aid initiative, designed to ensure that humanitarian assistance reaches Gazan civilians while preventing Hamas from seizing supplies — a problem that has persisted since the war began following the group’s October 7, 2023, massacre.
