An illegal immigrant woman convicted of attempting to kill her newborn baby on Long Island, New York, has been successfully deported from the United States, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
Soili Xiomara Aparicio-Santos, an illegal immigrant from Honduras, was deported by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from New York in April. The agency said she was deported after serving just eight years in a New York prison sentence for attempted infant murder.
Aparicio-Santos entered the country illegally under the Obama administration in 2014. She has had a final order of removal against her since 2014.
MIGRANT CONVICTED OF KILLING HIS SON ARRESTED BY ICE YEARS AFTER INITIAL DEPORTATION
In 2018, she was convicted of second-degree attempted murder, first and second-degree attempted assault, and endangering the welfare of a child.
DHS said that despite being originally sentenced to 16 years in prison for her crime, Aparicio-Santos’ sentence was reduced to 10 years, of which she only ended up serving eight. However, DHS said that local authorities cooperated with ICE and notified the agency before her release, enabling federal agents to make the arrest.

The 41-year-old was living in Centereach, New York, in Suffolk County on Long Island, local outlet Daily Voice reported.
The outlet reported that in 2017, Aparicio-Santos attempted to kill her baby boy by smothering him with a pillow. A family member noticed her actions and called the police. The child reportedly avoided serious injuries and was placed in foster care.
ICE first lodged an immigration detainer — a request to hold — against Aparicio-Santos after she was initially arrested by Suffolk County police for first-degree reckless endangerment in 2017. The agency then lodged a second detainer in 2018 while she was serving her sentence, DHS said.
Lauren Bis, acting DHS assistant secretary, lauded the local Long Island authorities for cooperating with ICE to remove Aparicio-Santos.
«Thanks to cooperation by law enforcement and our ICE officers, this barbaric criminal is out of our country,» Bis said in a DHS news release.

«This monster attempted to KILL her own child the day he was born,» said Bis.
She slammed the Obama administration for having «released this attempted murderer into our country.»
Bis emphasized that DHS «need(s) cooperation from state and local politicians to get criminals like this out of our country,» adding, «Together, we can make America safe again.»
Suffolk and Nassau, New York, counties, both of which are majority Republican-controlled, stand in stark contrast with neighboring New York City in their approach to cooperating with federal immigration enforcement.
Suffolk County is currently battling a $112 million federal jury verdict after courts found the county violated constitutional rights by holding inmates past their release dates solely to honor ICE detainer requests.
Suffolk Attorney Thomas Dewey slammed the ruling, the New York Post reported, saying, «The jury’s preposterous and unjust damages award cannot stand.»

DHS said in its statement that seven of the top 10 safest cities in the U.S. cooperate with ICE.
The agency called partnerships with federal immigration enforcement and local law enforcement «critical to having the resources DHS needs to arrest criminal illegal aliens across the country.»

«When politicians bar local law enforcement from working with DHS, law enforcement officers have to have a more visible presence to find and apprehend the criminals let out of jails and back into communities,» the agency said.

President Donald Trump’s immense sway over the GOP was on the line tonight in Indiana’s primary, as the president’s endorsements in key Republican state Senate nomination races were being tested.
And it appears Trump’s grip over the Republican Party remains extremely strong.
Five months ago, Republicans in the GOP-dominated Indiana state Senate withstood immense pressure from Trump and his allies and voted down congressional redistricting, which would have given solidly red Indiana two more right-leaning U.S. House seats ahead of the midterms.
Fast-forward to present day, and eight of those state senators faced GOP primary challenges. Seeking retribution, the president endorsed challengers to seven of the eight Republican lawmakers who voted against the redistricting bill.

The Associated Press reports that five Trump-endorsed candidates have won, with one incumbent surviving, and one race yet to be decided.
Trump-backed Blake Fletcher has defeated incumbent state Sen. Travis Holdman in Indiana’s 19th District, in the northeastern part of the state. And Michelle Davis, who was supported by the president, topped incumbent Sen. Greg Walker in District 41 in central Indiana.
Tracey Powell, who was also supported by Trump, defeated incumbent state Sen. Jim Buck in District 21 in central Indiana. Buck was backed by former Vice President Mike Pence, who was elected congressman and later governor of Indiana before serving as Trump’s first vice president.
In District 11 in northern Indiana, incumbent Linda Rogers was defeated by Trump-endorsed Brian Schmutzler.
And the AP also reports that in northwestern Indiana’s District 1, Trump-supported Trevor De Vries topped incumbent state Sen. Dan Dernulc.
Only one state senator has survived so far. Sen. Greg Goode defeated two challengers, Trump-backed Brenda Wilson and Alexandra Wilson, in District 38, in western Indiana.
Meanwhile, in District 39, Trump-backed Jeff Ellington won the GOP nomination in an open-seat race where there was no incumbent.
The president’s allies shelled out more than $6 million to try to oust the state senators, according to the national ad tracking firm AdImpact.
Leading the charge were Hoosier Leadership for America and American Leadership PAC, which are aligned with GOP Sen. Jim Banks, a top Senate ally of the president. Groups allied with Republican Gov. Mike Braun were also part of the full court press. And two well known national groups: Turning Point USA’s political wing and the Club for Growth, also had the president’s back in Indiana.
The intraparty battle was seen not just as a test of fealty to Trump but rather a fight between MAGA forces and more traditional conservatives for the future of the GOP.

Vladimir Putin teme un intento de asesinato y el Kremlin refuerza aún más las medidas de seguridad
La invasión rusa a Ucrania, la noche del 23 al 24 de febrero de 2022, hace ya más de cuatro años, debía haber durado días, apenas semanas. Kiev debía haber caído y Moscú debía haber puesto a un dirigente títere a gobernar un país que considera poco más que su patio trasero. El error estratégico del presidente ruso Vladimir Putin y la sorprendente capacidad de resistencia ucraniana -con ayuda europea siempre y estadounidense hasta principios de 2025- hicieron que cuatro años después Putin empiece a tener miedo.
La historia rusa nos lleva al período que va desde, aproximadamente 1862 hasta 1917, la época que Karl Marx llamó “de los soñadores de lo absoluto”, un título que el alemán Hans Magnus Enzensberger tomó prestado para una pequeña obra que cuenta el papel de los revolucionarios radicales que actuaron en esa época en Rusia, conspiradores fanáticos, convencidos de la necesidad de sacrificar todo para derribar al régimen zarista.
Putin, que vivió varios años destinado como agente del KGB en la Alemania Oriental, debe haber leído a Marx y probablemente a Enzensberger. Y debe haberse dado cuenta de que él también podría ser algún día objetivo de quien piense que la única solución para acabar con el régimen es acabar con el líder. O de un ataque lanzado por Ucrania, quien ya muestra capacidad para atacar Moscú con drones.
El presidente ucraniano Volodimir Zelenski juega con ese miedo. Este lunes, desde Erevan, donde acudió a la reunión de la Comunidad Política Europea, dijo: “Rusia ha anunciado un desfile el 9 de mayo en Moscú sin material militar. Si eso ocurre, será la primera vez en muchos, muchos años que no pueden permitirse material militar. Y temen que drones sobrevuelen la Plaza Roja. Es revelador. Muestra que no están fuertes en este momento”.
Lo que hacía el presidente ucraniano era indicar a Putin que no saque armas caras a las calles de Moscú para el desfile porque los drones ucranianos podrían atacarlas. Y de paso, que se cuide él también.
La élite política europea tiene informes de inteligencia sobre la situación interna en el Kremlin. Uno de esos informes fue publicado este lunes por el diario digital ‘Important Stories’, una publicación puesta en marcha por periodistas exiliados rusos.
Su texto dice que “desde marzo (de este año) el Kremlin y el presidente Vladimir Putin están preocupados por filtraciones de información sensible y, al mismo tiempo, por el miedo a un complot (para asesinar a Putin) o un intento de golpe de Estado”.
Según el informe, “el presidente ruso teme especialmente el uso de drones para un posible intento de asesinato a manos de miembros de la élite política rusa”. Un golpe de Estado interno puesto en marcha por miembros de su entorno.
El informe del servicio de inteligencia que cita ‘Important Stories’ llega a poner algunos nombres como potenciales complotistas, entre ellos el del ex ministro de Defensa Serguei Shoigu, a quien considera “un actor potencialmente desestabilizador”.
El informe del servicio secreto asegura que Shoigu sigue teniendo una “influencia significativa” en la cadena de mando militar. Su antiguo número dos, Ruslan Tsalikov, fue detenido el 5 de marzo de 2026. Su detención debe entenderse como una advertencia a Shoigu.
Las medidas de seguridad en torno a Putin se han endurecido. Los controles para acceder al Kremlin son más estrictos que nunca y el presidente ruso pasa semanas enteras en búnkeres por miedo a ser atacado en sus dependencias presidenciales. Putin ha dejado de visitar hace meses sus dachas en Valdai y cerca de Moscú.
El presidente, además, se protege no acudiendo a lugares donde pueda ser objetivo de atentados, y eso incluye bases militares rusas. Si hasta finales de 2025 sus visitas a bases militares eran habituales, en 2026 no ha pisado ninguna.
Los asesinatos de altos mandos de las Fuerzas Armadas rusas, incluyendo coroneles y generales, en Moscú y supuestamente a manos de agentes ucranianos (el último, el 22 de diciembre pasado, del teniente general Fanil Sarvarov) muestran que la capacidad de Kiev para asesinar objetivos selectivamente es cada vez mayor.

Zelenskyy blasts ‘absolute cynicism’ as deadly Russian barrage hits Ukraine before planned ceasefire
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Russian drone and missile strikes on Tuesday killed at least 22 people and wounded more than 80 across Ukraine, just hours before Kyiv had planned a ceasefire and days ahead of a pause announced by Moscow.
Glide bombs struck the Ukrainian cities of Kramatorsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Chernihiv on Tuesday afternoon, killing at least 17 civilians and injuring 45. Overnight attacks left five people dead and 39 wounded, according to The Associated Press.
«Absolute cynicism — to demand silence for holding propagandistic celebrations and then deliver such missile and drone strikes on all the days leading up to it,» Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on X.

Zelenskyy added that Russia could end the war at any time.
«Every day, Russia could cease fire, and that would stop the war and our responses. Peace is needed, and real steps are required for it. Ukraine will act in kind,» he said.
Russia’s Defense Ministry previously said it would impose a unilateral ceasefire on Friday and Saturday for Victory Day, but warned it would retaliate if Ukraine disrupts events, The Associated Press reported.

The United Nations welcomed the moves, with Secretary-General António Guterres urging a full ceasefire.
Guterres called for «a full, immediate, unconditional and lasting ceasefire, leading to a just, comprehensive, and sustainable peace, in line with the U.N. Charter, international law and relevant U.N. resolutions,» The Associated Press reported.
Victory Day, observed each year on May 9 in Russia, marks the Allied victory over Nazi Germany.

Russia has previously announced short holiday truces — most recently for Orthodox Easter — but they have failed to hold amid persistent mistrust between the two countries.
During that ceasefire, Ukraine’s military reported more than 2,200 violations, including shelling, assaults and drone activity.
Russia’s Defense Ministry, in turn, accused Ukrainian forces of nearly 2,000 breaches, including strikes in border regions that it said injured civilians.
