Violence Continues to Surge as Protests Intensify
Columbia University Senate Approves Investigation
Hundreds of Protesters Clash with Police
Amidst the ongoing unrest, Columbia University's senate has voted to establish a task force to probe the increasing tensions on campus. This decision comes after weeks of escalating protests and clashes with the New York Police Department (NYPD).
The university's request for police assistance stems from ongoing student demonstrations that have resulted in the disruption of classes and the shutdown of campus buildings. The protesters, largely consisting of pro-Palestinian activists, have demanded a boycott of Israeli products and an end to alleged NYPD surveillance on campus.
As the protests continue, violence has escalated, with reports of protesters throwing objects at police and setting fires. The NYPD has responded with force, using tear gas and making arrests. The situation remains tense, with protesters refusing to leave Columbia's main campus despite a midnight deadline.
