A recent incident at City University of New York (CUNY) and Columbia University resulted in NYPD officers making arrests of anti-Israel protesters. The arrests at CUNY occurred after protesters pushed the police line and allegedly stormed a building near the anti-Israel encampment on campus. Similarly, at Columbia University, protesters were removed from Hamilton Hall, an academic building occupied by anti-Israel demonstrators. Columbia University has restricted access to the campus and announced that the students involved in the occupation may face expulsion. The events at both universities have sparked controversy and garnered media attention.
