New York, April 26 (RHC)-- In the U.S., students at the City College of New York rallied on campus to demand their administration divest from Israel and prioritize students’ safety, amid a mounting crackdown on rights across higher education.
Students established what they called the Hilmi al-Faqaawi Liberated Zone, a tribute to the slain journalist who was killed when Israel struck a press tent in Khan Younis earlier this month.
Campus security and NYPD moved in to suppress the peaceful protest, deploying pepper spray on the students.
