As Israel continues its military assault on Gaza, some Palestinians in the US say they have been “heartened” by the “phenomenal” support they have seen from student demonstrators around the country.
Risking suspension, expulsion and even arrest, US students have spent the last few weeks protesting against Israel’s war on Gaza – which has so far killed more than 34,000 Palestinians, and reduced homes, hospitals and schools to rubble – and calling for their schools to financially divest from weapons manufacturing companies who supply the Israeli military.
