Anti-war protests are spreading across U.S. college campuses. The demonstrations, which started in the East and have spread to the West, are increasing, with hundreds arrested.

According to media outlets such as Reuters, AP, and CNN on the 25th (local time), protests against the U.S.’s pro-Israel policies are intensifying about the war between Israel and the Palestinian armed group Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

In particular, as the protests spread across various college campuses, the level of police repression has increased in the process of breaking up the crowds.

According to reports from the Boston Police Department and the Yonhap News Agency, 108 protesters were arrested at Emerson College in Boston from the previous night to the early morning of the day. Local news footage showed students resisting the police by linking arms and using umbrellas. All classes at Emerson College were canceled that day.

Physical confrontations also occurred at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, as police dismantled the protesters’ tents. The AP reported that “at least 17 people were taken into custody during this process.”

The situation in southern Texas is similar. The Texas Department of Public Safety announced that 34 people were arrested as of 9 p.m. the previous day in relation to the protest on the University of Texas Austin campus. After the police left, about 300 protesters at the University of Texas sat on the lawn and chanted slogans against the police and the school, according to Yonhap News Agency.

Protests in Los Angeles (LA) on the West Coast also intensified. On the same day, 93 protesters were arrested at the University of Southern California (USC).

The majority of anti-war protests on U.S. college campuses are in opposition to the administration’s extreme pro-Israel policies.

The Georgia branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) criticized in a statement that “police used excessive force with tear gas and rubber bullets at Emory University” and “the school and the police must take full responsibility for the violence currently occurring on the Emory campus.”
