Protestors of the Israeli military's action in its war with Hamas in Gaza set up an encampment Monday morning on the University of Washington campus, joining a dozen or so other colleges nationwide.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators began setting up tents at the Quad around 8 a.m., calling for UW to divest any interests in Israel and cut ties with Boeing.

UW, which had "no camping" signs on the property, said it will monitor the situation throughout the day and "respond as appropriate to maintain a safe and secure environment for our campus community."

The demonstration was peaceful Monday.
