Meanwhile in the us protests at universities against the gaza war are continuing, with tensions rising. More than 300 pro Palestinian Protesters at campuses in new york have been arrested after officers raided a building which had been occupied by the demonstrators. Dozens of College Campuses across the us have been taken over by students calling for universities to Boycott Companies and individuals with ties to israel. There has been a night of violence at ucla when Counter Protesters attacked a camp set up by pro palestinian demonstrators. The governor of california has condemned the Police Response to clashes at ucla on tuesday, calling it delayed and unacceptable. Emma vardy reports from los angeles. This was the moment tensions between rival protesters boiled over. Pro palestinian activists and a counterdemonstration by pro israel supporters became violent. Fireworks were thrown over a screaming crowd, and wood used as weapons. We had people beating us with sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. Im kind of annoyed at myself for not seeing it coming, but i didnt think it would ever get to this, escalate to this level. The Los Angeles Police were called by The University. The Vice Chancellor has condemned last nights events as a horrific act of violence. Eventually officers separated the groups. We pay tuition, this is our school, they are not letting me walk in. Somejewish students said they felt threatened by the protests and were blocked by demonstrators for walking across campus. I do not condone the actions of this mob, they were not ucla students, there were people in their late 20s, early 30s, that came in and took matters into their own hands. But i have to say, i understand why they did it because, in their eyes, they could see the administration was not doing anything about this Anti Semitism that is boiling in our back yard here at ucla. As this has grown, there have been disruption for many students in la with campuses closed and Graduation Ceremonies are scaled back. There was particular Frustration Debate for frustration today for students who would have been taking exams. Instead, a heavy Police Presence on campus will continue. Emma vardy, bbc news, los angeles. Earlier i spoke to Education Reporter for the la times, jaweed kaleem, about how protesters, authorities and University Faculty are reacting today. It was was violent, was was very dangerous, very scary. We had some reporters on the scene who witnessed the counterprotest and group at ucla, began attacking and yelling slurs at pro Palestinian Protesters. And it took a few hours for police to to really show up and try to settle things down. We dont know how many arrests have been made at any. We have heard unofficially that at least 15 people were injured to varying degrees, including going to the hospital. And, you know, its not the same kind of violence right now, but students are still out there today. I want to ask you about the response by authorities, but first, can you tell us more about who these cou nter protesters a re 7 its unclear. I think its fair to say they were in support of israel and offended and angry about the encampments. Some of the videos show as much. There is one video where a man says as hes attacking that he mentions the, quote, second nakba, which is the first nakba, is what palestinians call the time when israel was created. And many palestinians as a war was launched, had to flee their homes. They call it a catastrophe. So somebody used that phrasing, which is a very strong phrasing last night. I dont know if they were students or not. And, you know, to be very clear, jewish groups across the county and la area have condemned this violence. They say this is not what we call for. We may disagree with this protest and encampment happening, but were not calling for violence. So they made that very clear. Yeah. Questions have been raised as well as to how long it took ucla to seek out authorities to respond. Why has ucla had such a hands off approach . Ucla handled things differently as encampments have been growing across the Us University system and across california. Just a few miles across town from ucla is The University of southern california, a private university, also fairly large and big in la. And they had an encampment and after the first day of it at night they made 93 arrests and tried to clear it out. Now, they were criticised heavily for doing that, for their treatment of free speech rights, for example, or calling the police so fast. Ucla and The University of california system that as many universities has treated things differently, theyve allowed encampments to grow and tried to not interfere, fearing that that might actually cause more tension. But the day before, during the daytime of before the attack yesterday, ucla had said that this encampment was in violation of University Policies and needed to be cleared.

Protesters were Hand Written Note from the University Administration telling them they were breaching Criminal Trespass Laws and if the tents werent removed they would be forcibly taken down and people risked arrest. We then saw the State Troopers, riot police armed with batons, many of them with zip coughs and sticks, they moved in in waves here towards the crowd. There have been some barricades placed by some of the protesters, effectively part of the banners that they had been using. And the police force their way through. And they ripped down the tents and the gazebos. Weve saw around a dozen or so protesters get down on the ground, linked arms, they were forcibly dragged away by the police here. And what we now haveis police here. And what we now have is this standoff, so you can see the situation with the protesters still gathered here. Over this way if you look to the left of the protesters, theres the remnants of what were the tents and the food and supplies that they had.
