As the pro-Palestine students protest goes on unabated, New York Police Department (NYPD) officers stormed inside Columbia University on Wednesday carrying zip ties and riot shields, arresting dozens of people around the campus. After dozens of demonstrators occupied Hamilton Hall, vandalizing it on Tuesday, Columbia University’s President in a letter to NYDP requested them to help clear individuals and encampments from the campus. The anti-Israel protests in the US’ most prestigious institutions have spread like wildfire disrupting law & order completely for a week now, however, it is believed to be triggered by those who are not even affiliated with the university, ultimately creating havoc.
