Hey. Reporter video of the moment a fight broke out on uc berkeleys campus. The woman who shot this video who wants to remain anonymous said in a statement to cbs news bay area that she was with a group of pro israel students standing across from the sproul plaza with an israeli flag. She says someone grabbed their flag and it led to this fight. She said the incident was terrifying and that some protesters followed their group until they reached the police station. Hamza mahmoud with Uc Berkeley Divest Coalition said there and said the person who grabbed the israeli flag was not from the protest. We mostly didnt engage. We had one person ive never seen at the camp, none of us knew who disappeared immediately after, were not sure who this person is who just grabbed a flag. Reporter he says the injuries that happened in the scuffle are small compared to whats happening in gaza. Bloody nose and one of our protesters got punched in the eye. 40,000 people have been killed. Were seeing on our phones people with limbs are gone. I want to reemphasize. This is not about us. Reporter he says with finals and summer break looming theres no timeline how long the camp will stay at sproul plaza and theyre taking things day by day, saying theyll continue to demand uc divest from israel, but uc put out a statement the University System as a whole will not do that and the universitys stance on the encampment has not changed. In that statement the University Also says they urge everyone to avoid getting involved in pointless conflicts and as long as the protest remains nonviolent it can stay.

Lets take a live look at the State Capitol now where some California Republicans are calling for strict action against protests.

At the white house today President Biden said the images coming in from campuses across the country have put to the test two fundamental american principles. First is the right to free speech and for people to peacefully assemble and make their voices heard. The second is the rule of law. Both must be upheld. Up until now the president has largely avoided speaking about the protests. He also said today the National Guard would not be deployed.
