Massive protests across several US university campuses over Israel's war with Gaza intensified on Wednesday after police cracked down on the protesters, arresting many. The stir that was so far focused at Columbia University has now spread across several other universities, including Columbia, Harvard, USC, University of Texas at Austin and others.
At least around 20 students were detained at the University of Texas's Austin campus after 100 state troopers arrived at the scene. Similar scenes unfolded at the University of Southern California as police arrested a Palestinian student organiser, with videos showing cops bringing out their batons to take control of the situation.
