Palestinian Asylum Seeker Arrested in Houston on Gun Charges

in Current Events, This Week

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

A Palestinian asylum seeker from Jordan has been arrested in Houston, Texas, in a significant federal operation, as confirmed by law enforcement sources to KHOU 11.

The 20-year-old, Sohaib Abu Yash, now awaits his appearance in federal court next week.

Federal complaints reveal Abu Yash’s charges: possession of a firearm by a prohibited person.

Investigations have unearthed his alleged affiliations with radical groups, and evidence suggests he underwent weapon training for a possible attack.

Abu Yash entered the U.S. in 2016 on a tourist visa, exited, and re-entered from the Middle East in 2019.

He later overstayed his visa and subsequently applied for asylum.

The FBI flagged Abu Yash this summer. Videos on his TikTok and Instagram, showing him firing rifles and handguns, became the focus.

The clips led agents to two Houston gun ranges.

Employees at these ranges then assisted authorities in tying Abu Yash to purchase records and surveillance footage mirroring his online posts.

Although Abu Yash claimed on TikTok that the weapons were airsoft guns, investigations confirmed them as real firearms.

The FBI spokesperson, Connor Hagen, affirmed the arrest took place last Thursday, following a court-sanctioned operation. Further inquiries were directed to the U.S. attorney’s office in Houston.

    One individual, seriously! Millions have entered in the last three years. We know for a fact that the drug cartels are working with Hamas. So how many people and cells have the cartels set up and armed here in the U.S.? We know that the FBI, DHS, and the rest of those useless agencies have no idea. Please stop acting like this one individual was a difference.

    Though he apparently did not cross the border illegally, his second entrance into the nation should have, and might have, triggered some alarms.

    I am all for immigrants coming into our nation, through the FRONT DOOR, after being fully vetted. Nearly 100% of the people reading this are descendants of immigrants.

    This is nothing. 10-15 million invaders already in place. Wait till next summer. Voodoo sacrifice. Cannibalism. Your neighbors crucified on telephone poles. You think theres going to be an election in November? You’ll be lucky to survive a trip to the grocery store. If any are left. Those people are not refugees. They are Conquerors.

    Well at least one group of FBI officers are actually going after and catching bad guys. Now, what is the justice system going to do about it?

      My thoughts exactly; but then again, even a broken clock is right twice a day!
