Police were called to several US colleges on Wednesday amid a wave of pro-Palestinian student protests. Around 300 people were taken into police custody at Columbia University and City College in New York, while clashes between rival groups of protesters broke out in Los Angeles. Students called the demonstrations to protest academic and government support for Israel amid its ground offensive in Gaza.
More than 34,500 people in the Palestinian territory have been killed since the beginning of Israel's military operation, according to the Hamas-run Health Ministry. Israel has pointed to the protests as examples of antisemitism at American universities — an accusation that student groups have rejected.
The pro-Palestinian encampments are the most widespread and prolonged unrest to rock US college campuses since protests against the Vietnam War in the 1960s and 1970s.
