In a tense and chaotic scene at UCLA, opposing protest groups clashed after demonstrators breached a security barrier meant to keep them apart. Pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered to support an encampment protesting Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, while a group of counter-protesters draped in Israeli flags set up a video screen and speaker set-up.
The situation quickly escalated as the two sides came face-to-face, screaming at each other and shoving back and forth. CNN’s Camila Bernal, reporting from the campus, described the high passions on both sides, with confrontations turning violent at times.
Despite efforts from organizers to keep the peace, physical altercations broke out between protesters. Police officers in riot gear stood at a distance, with university officials stating that they would only intervene if students were in harm’s way.
Mary Osako, UCLA’s vice chancellor for strategic communications, confirmed that demonstrators had breached the barrier and that there were scuffles between the groups. The university, known for being a place of peaceful protest, expressed sadness over the violence that occurred.
As of now, information about any potential injuries has not been released. The situation remains tense as both groups continue to face off on campus. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
