‘YOU’RE COMMITTING ASSAULT’ U.S. POLICE ARREST PRO-PALESTINE STUDENTS
Student protests against Israel’s bombardment of Gaza are happening across the world, and they’ve exploded in the United States. Over the last week there have been demonstrations at campuses from California to Massachusetts. But their calls of ‘free Palestine’ have been met with a violent response from police who’ve arrested hundreds.
This clip shows Los Angeles officers man-handling students at University of Southern California (USC). You can hear a bystander shouting ‘you’re committing assault’ as officers pull a protester off campus. Ninety-three people were detained for ‘trespassing’ after they’d formed a camp on college grounds.
Footage on social media also appears to show police firing a rubber bullet into a crowd near the university. The LAPD hasn’t confirmed if officers used such weapons during the hours-long operation on Wednesday, April 24th, 2024.
Apart from arrest, students also face suspension by universities, which are accused of investing in corporations that profit from the war.

UPDATE: German police are using extreme violence to evict the pro-Palestine camp outside the German parliament. The brutal eviction of the non-violent activists comes as police have banned the two-week-long camp with no legal basis. The activists are calling on Berliners to leave their place of work or study to join them in defense of their right to protest Germany’s support for Israel’s genocide.
