At least 34 pro-Palestine protesters were arrested following a rally at the University of Texas in Austin on Wednesday. Students were calling for the university to divest from companies doing business with Israel and chanted to “end the occupation” before police forces on horseback and in riot gear attempted to disperse the protests.
The standoff in Austin comes as ongoing protests at New York’s Columbia University amid Israel’s war on Gaza and similar demonstrations across the country have sparked intense attention from media and politicians.
