Anti-Israel protesters have “occupied” a building of the Institute of Political Studies in Paris, as authorities in the US work to shut down pro-Palestinian student encampments in universities across America.
Unconfirmed reports on social media say students from all over Paris gathered to protest the ongoing war in Gaza and to urge French President Emmanuel Macron to push for a ceasefire.
Other reports say the protests have turned violent, with police using tear gas and water cannons to disperse crowds.
