6:03 am
least 50 people have been detained. they have been taken to a police station. lots of it seems now that people peroration is now over. but what we do know is so, so is that the president of columbia university has asked the police to remain in place at least for us several days, mostly to make sure that to being compliment does not happen again for what we're hearing. we have not been able to enter columbia university fire. apparently the tents that were set inside the campus right in the middle of the campus had been removed. many of the students that were inside not totally in hamilton hall, that's where the students on monday night, that's the place where they entered the vote. hamilton hold, they renamed it after a 6 year old girl from guys of and was killed by these riley military. the battery katie, themselves there and what we do know is of the students inside hamilton hold,
6:04 am
but also both wary and other parts of the campus were detained. taken to a police station, it seems now that the operation is over. however, when you talk to many of the students that were here just until a few minutes ago, they saying that they will continue that to arrest have been made in the past. but back in april, 17th or 18th, at least a 100 students were detained. many of them were suspended and the best protest continue. let me tell you that whatever happened next to your inc, the university, this is a place that inspire to move funds across the country where thousands of people started to take to their campuses, to the universities, to be manned. and then to the war on guys that to the $9.00 to $9.00 to his regular probation. so it'd be what we have spoken to here that we're here on this evening. what they're telling us is that no matter what happens next, the students of columbia university have already made history. and so as of what about the process that have been happening outside the campus, because we know that there were plenty of people who will also protesting in new
6:05 am
york city in support of the students. so it's been a very confusing night. we've been here all day and there were students protesting outside of the gates. they showed up here to show support to the students were inside of the university. let's not forget that once the students to a battery stated themselves inside high load, some well on the was a complete you don't, don't know if the university, the only people that were allowed inside where the essential stuff. and also some of the students that are living inside the campus, but many of those who were outside were not allowed to go back can in fact they were helping those in sites to resist that were bringing food and water and other items. we also saw when we were white here, us about to 2 to 300 people marching around the campus though it's different location. it's not clear yet what happened to them. we do know that they went to another college that's about to 2 kilometers away from where we are and try to
6:06 am
enter another college. they were not allowed to do so by the police. were hearing that there's some small protest by the students, but we kind of confirmed that another big protest is ongoing. many of the students we have spoken to are still in shock. they're extremely concerned about what happened to them. they're concerned that many students who were protesting right outside the gate here in columbia university were arrested just for standing in front of a gate that were not doing anything by it and, and they were taken by the police. so many of the students we have spoken to are, since i've been in shock, they're sad about what is going on, but they're saying that they will continue. they're saying that this is not over there saying that they will continue to shed lights on what is happening in gaza. they would continue to shed light to the killing to the displacement. so we had congress that it's happening and gaza right now. okay, to raise up many things in the pure reporting throughout the night till next phone
6:07 am
re situation. crack sound, the own protest is at columbia university in new york. let's speak now to cameron. jones is the lead. denies us columbia as jewish voice for pace of itself, most students and joins is also from the university. cameron, we know now that police are saying that the operation in hamilton, whole and on campus is over a number of students have been arrested. what do you know about what's happening around you? yeah, so i am still barricaded inside uh, next door building to hamilton hall. and it is set to be really, stress is really high and it's, it's really disheartening to see our students and friends get taken away by the police violently. and we have footage of students being violently pushed downstairs and then being arrested. so i think tensions are really high, so we're hearing that be incumbent as well. the tenants that had a crop top on university compass of also being cleared and the university is off.
6:08 am
police to stay on site until may the 17th says off to the graduation surveys. ones, the cutting, the university goes into summer recess. what do you think's going to happen to the protests from here? oh yeah, i think we have seen the university try again and again to silence pro palestine voices on campus. and every time they try to silence us, we only get louder. we only bring lights and numbers to our valley's largest number to add to our protests. so i am certain that you will see a large, large blow back from the student body from faculty, from alumni in the coming weeks. we will not band, but if in violence, police brutality on our campus. and we will stand up for what we believe. but what the rest of the suspension from universities mean for students and does it not intimidate them? i would say students are very intimidating,
6:09 am
but it is nothing compared to what palestinians are facing in god the every day and be brought to light. the purpose that we have and be back to ignite, that we have to put our lives at risk. so we can protect individuals in god the in the west bank in east jerusalem. coming just to stay with us for a moment. i'm just gonna bring all view is the statement that columbia university has issued explaining is decision to cool in the police. is that, that protest of escalating the situation by barricaded themselves in the whole? that's hamilton the whole with the administration accusing them of forcing security guards out of the building and threatening members of stuff. now, colombia officials said that they will not risk the safety of the university or further escalation, cameron, that was the university administrative leave, and it was full bringing in the police to night. so what's your response to it? did you see students threatening stop? was there a breakdown in order with us threats to secure the on campus?
6:10 am
yeah, so my response to that is that i have not heard any threats against bass or public safety. and the occupation of hamilton hall, which has not been been named in hall with nothing but peaceful, no one with time. and there was no violence of any sort. the only balance we have seen now is by the n y, p d being brought into by leo red, peaceful protests is coming in response to all of this was all students all asking for of the university, all the calls for the administrators, or indeed the president president, suffolk, to step down over this. oh yeah, completely. there was a large, large support for me needs to pick to resign for laura rose and barry to resign to the president of fine. all right. and for a whole investigation of everything that happened in the past few weeks to be done . okay, cameron james,
6:11 am
many thanks. indeed for joining us throughout the night to bring us a view from where you are. you are a barricade, remain barricaded inside a building on campus. uh we have check back in with you in the coming hours. lets go now to uh, the correspondent kristen salumi, who is also out just outside columbia university. she's across the campus from where to raise it, but it was reporting early christian festival. it's looking pretty quiet way. you all can you describe the scene as you said, the a yeah. really just a big police presence here. still. we saw them take the drone that they had over the campus and bring that back and put it into the van. it seems like things are winding down here a bit. the demonstrators that were here earlier, moved down town. they are marching towards police plaza where all of those who have been arrested are being taken to be processed. and as we just heard about
6:12 am
least 50 students summer saying 100. but the official word i believe is 50 students that have been arrested. and while we were here on this side of the campus, we saw police escorting some students off and the students were very shaken. we're avoiding media didn't want to talk some of them, but i pulled one young man aside and he told me what happened. and she said that, well, the police came on, he was standing in front of hamilton hall, now hidden hall and the police came and he said that there was no warning there was no call to leave or face arrest. he said that some people were pushed down violently, push down and grabbed and drag. some people were arrested again without warning. there was no reading of rights or explanation according to this one protest or,
6:13 am
and that police got behind him and forced him basically that he and other demonstrators were surrounded and corralled and pushed to make their way off campus, but not arrested. so okay, well we know that at least 50 people have gone town town to be arrested. that there were several dozens, if not hundreds more on campus. we don't have an exact number, but there were others on of us who were not arrested. that were taking part in the demonstration and were, you know, violently escorted off the campus president, many things and david brings to view from where you are just outside columbia university. just to remind view is that it's a couple of hours since police and neal police entered columbia campus around 50 of them entered hamilton. the whole, the number of students had been held up since monday night. according to own
6:14 am
correspondence. the latest figure is around 50 students were arrested. they were taken away on to bosses to police plaza in new york, where they will be protests where they will be processed. also, all the incumbents on the university we understand have been cleared. but we've been hearing from students that this is not the end of the protests that they are not going to be intimidated by the crack sandwiches, weeks. extraordinary levels, the in columbia university. this nice in new york. the now is a diplomatic push on the way to reach a ceasefire, and garza with the us existing pressure on the home us to agree that as well as tom's bought prime minister benjamin netanyahu has bound to attack rafa in southern garza. whether or not there was a seas find that a smith reports from occupied east, jerusalem,
