University students in Canada add their voices to the international revolt

Young people from the University of Toronto, in Canada, added their voices to the international student revolt in support of Palestine, and asked the authorities of their country stop investing resources in the universities of “Israel.”

The call for this Monday in Toronto includes a sit-in on the campus, where they will denounce with posters and slogans the Zionist crimes in Gaza, as hundreds of universities in the United States and Europe did in recent weeks.

One of the activists, Muhammad Yassin, highlighted the willingness of dozens of students from different countries to join the sit-in and demand a ceasefire and an end to the Israeli genocide.

On the other hand, at Princeton University (state of New Jersey, USA), protests have grown since last May 3, when a group of students declared a hunger strike, awaiting institutional attention to their demands. , among which a complete academic and cultural boycott of the universities of the Zionist entity stands out.

Likewise, the French university students accused the authorities of their country of collusion with “Israel” in their war against the Gaza Strip, and asked them not give more political cover to crimes against the Palestinian people.

In both the United States and Europe, the response of school administrations took precedence repression of these protests and peaceful encampments, with the help of local or national police and numerous arrests of students and teachers.

According to a report by the Reuters agency about the events at Columbia University, at the request of the rector, the New York police stormed the campus with violence, and arrested at least 30 students, six graduates and two employees for expressing his open support for Palestine.

The agency interviewed students, teachers, and passersby who witnessed the event, and also confirmed the use of police drones to monitor the situation from the sky above the camp organized by the protesters.
