Arrests as US police storm pro-Palestine protest at University of California, Irvine
Police in the US have arrested students at an encampment at the University of California in Irvine in support of a ceasefire in Gaza.
Hundreds of students at the campus closed off a lecture hall on Wednesday.
The university is one of many colleges across the country where protesters have been demanding that schools divest from Israeli companies. Students at the University of Florida in Gainesville have also been demonstrating against the war in Gaza.
That's despite the university's orders not to. Al Jazeera’s Rob Reynolds has more from the University of California in Irvine and Alan Fisher is on the campus in Gainesville. Subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe
