Campus protests live updates: 'Horrific violence' on UCLA campus after police clear New York protest - BBC News Campus protests live updates: 'Horrific violence' on UCLA campus after police clear New York protest - BBC News
(32 minutes later)
After clashes between pro-Palestinian protesters at UCLA and a rival group supporting Israel, one activist described the attacks faced by the former group as "relentless". That update from Nomia comes after hundreds of police officers raided Columbia University overnight, to disperse pro-Palestinian protesters who'd taken over a building on campus, Hamilton Hall.
"Tonight they escalated to a whole new level, they started inciting violence," she told BBC News earlier. The image below shows the location of the hall - as well as the lawn, where activists had camped out.
The student, who spoke anonymously, said her cohort had faced "Zionist aggression every single night". Arrests were reported, although police haven't yet said how many. The university had earlier told students involved in the protests to leave or face expulsion.
She said she was "thankfully physically safe", but "a lot of my peers are not physically safe".
UCLA's vice-chancellor earlier said there had been "horrific" acts of violence, and the police had been called in.
