US Judge Temporarily Blocks End of TPS for Yemeni Nationals Amid Legal Challenge

A federal judge in Manhattan blocked the Trump administration's attempt to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for about 2,800 Yemeni nationals, citing procedural failures by the Department of Homeland Security. The judge described TPS holders as law-abiding individuals facing risks due to Yemen's ongoing civil war. The ruling temporarily extends protections while related lawsuits proceed, amid the administration's broader efforts to terminate TPS for multiple countries.
