Pro-Palestinian protesters at UCLA refuse orders to disperse
A large law enforcement presence on the campus of the University of California, Los Angeles Wednesday has ordered pro-Palestinian demonstrators to disperse, calling the encampment an unlawful assembly after violence erupted overnight. Hostilities outside the encampment had been simmering since demonstrators took over Royce Quad last Thursday, setting up dozens of tents and surrounding themselves with metal fences and wood pallets. At around 11 p.m. Tuesday night, some 50 pro-Israeli counter-protesters, many of them dressed in black and wearing white masks, lobbed fireworks at those in the encampment and attempted to dismantle the barricades.
