A wave of university protests and encampments has swept across the US and extended into Europe and Canada, in solidarity with Gaza. These protests have seen thousands of students participating, with actions ranging from raising the Palestinian flag at the University of Geneva to setting up encampments at the University of Pennsylvania, where 30 were arrested, and MIT, where an encampment lasted nearly three weeks before ending in arrests. The protests have led to numerous confrontations, particularly in the US, with quieter protests in Britain. The encampments and protests have sparked widespread discussions about the coordination and implications of such widespread student movements.
