UCLA and Cal State LA campuses are experiencing significant unrest due to pro-Palestinian protests. At UCLA, law enforcement, including LAPD, UCPD, CHP, and APEX, used rubber bullets and tear gas to control demonstrators, leading to the detention of several students. The university administration condemned the violence, and a temporary restraining order was issued against UAW 4811 workers' strike. Students and university workers marched on Westwood Plaza, calling for a new contract and divestment from Israel. Meanwhile, at Cal State LA, students staged a sit-in at the Student Services Building, demanding divestment from Israel. Some protesters vandalized the building, constructed barricades, and allegedly held the university president hostage. Similar protests at Oxford University led to the cancellation of exams.

A look at the damage left behind. Pro-Palestinian protesters barricaded a building yesterday. The school’s president was believed to be inside at the time. Protesters say no one was being held inside and people were free to leave. More: https://t.co/FfMYWZ4gSG https://t.co/1IlmngOKQt

Hamas copycats at Cal State LA trying to occupy a building and barricade staff inside locking all exits while simultaneously claiming they dont want hostages...apparently calling for intifada wasn't enough, now they want to escalate? https://t.co/tBTrezRWIG
