The president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology announced on Friday that 10 individuals were taken into custody during the removal of an anti-Israel encampment on the campus.
President Sally Kornbluth stated that the encampment on Kresge lawn was cleared early in the morning at her direction. Those present were given four warnings to depart or face arrest, with 10 individuals choosing to remain and subsequently being peacefully escorted off campus by MIT police officers for booking.
