WAFA, the Palestinian Authority’s official news agency, reported that Israeli forces broke into campus buildings and seized property belonging to a Hamas-affiliated student bloc.
The IDF said the raid was prompted by intelligence indicating that a “gathering in support of terrorism” was expected to take place on campus.
According to the military, IDF troops and Border Police officers entered the university area as the gathering began, used crowd-dispersal measures and fired warning shots only, eventually dispersing the crowd.
TVNL Comment: The phrase "in support of terrorism" is used to describe anyone, even a college student, who opposes Israeli oppression. It is used to justify killing anyone, anywhere, who does not announce support of Israel in its Zionist murderers. The world remains silent.
