An Afghan immigrant who had been detained by ICE died at a Texas hospital, with authorities reviewing the circumstances surrounding the detention.

Nasrat Ahmad Yar, an Afghan immigrant who had worked as an interpreter for the U.S. military in Afghanistan, was shot and killed in Washington while working as a ride-share driver. Ahmad Yar had fled to the U.S. with his family to escape the Taliban and had been known for his generosity and desire to help others. No suspects have been arrested, and a $25,000 reward has been offered for information leading to an arrest. The Afghan community has expressed shock and condolences, with fundraisers set up to support Ahmad Yar's wife and children.
