| Video Discription | UCLA LIVE: Tensions Grips UCLA After Police Order Protestors to Disperse or Face Arrest | USA LIVE | CNBC TV18 Live clashes during protest from Los Angeles on the campus of UCLA in the latest escalation of demonstrations against the Israel-Hamas war that have spread to college campuses nationwide. LOS ANGELES (AP) — Law enforcement on the UCLA campus donned riot gear Wednesday evening as they ordered the dispersal of over a thousand people who had gathered in support of a pro-Palestinian student encampment, warning over loudspeakers that anyone who refused to leave could face arrest. A large crowd of students, alumni and neighbors gathered on campus steps outside the barricaded area of tents, sitting as they listened and applauded various speakers and joined in pro-Palestinian chants. Overheard television cameras showed students in the barricaded area passing out goggles and helmets, as well as setting up medical aid stations. A small group of students holding signs and wearing T-shirts in support of Israel and Jewish people gathered nearby. UCLA on Tuesday, April 30, declared students’ ‘Palestine Solidarity Encampment’ unlawful and asked protesters to vacate immediately or risk disciplinary such as suspension or expulsion. The law enforcement presence and continued warnings stood in contrast to the scene that unfolded the night before, when counter-demonstrators attacked the pro-Palestinian encampment, throwing traffic cones, releasing pepper spray and tearing down barriers. Fighting continued for several hours before police stepped in, and no one was arrested. At least 15 protesters suffered injuries, and the tepid response by authorities drew criticism from political leaders as well as Muslim students and advocacy groups. Meanwhile at USC, President Caroline Folt entered the second day of talks with student protesters and announced the university was investigating the discovery of a swastika that was drawn on campus. Tensions have been escalating at both universities over the last week, where protesters refuse to stand down until leadership meets their demands, which include divesting from companies that do business with Israel and calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Pro-Palestine protests in the region are also roiling campuses at UC Irvine, UC Riverside, Cal Poly Pomona and Pasadena City College. Earlier in the day, UCLA Vice Chancellor Mary Osako issued a statement saying that the university has removed metal barriers that protesters were using to control foot traffic in and around Royce Quad. #ucla #ProPalestinianProtest #ColumbiaUniversity #losangeles #uscolleges #LiveNews #CNBCTV18 n18oc_world |
