> Spain has referred the Trump administration’s extradition request for activist and donor James “Fergie” Chambers to the country’s courts. Chambers is imprisoned in Madrid over alleged support for Hamas, while his lawyers and supporters call the case political persecution. He has applied for asylum in Spain, which bars extradition until the process ends.
