hit residential areas and rasa in southern gaza. rescue is are searching for survivors and has been ongoing. the israel is tempers flare outside the home of these right in 5 minutes to off to have mass release is a video of a 23 year old. is rating the week of the students at columbia university in new york, stepped out very campaign in support of palestine. protests against israel is more ongoing. is there a sprite to college campuses across the united states? hundreds of students how this fits in the university of southern california, police and campus security, rest of thousands of those who refuse to leave out any of the white house, said president joe biden, and supports free speech and non discrimination at universities. i'm just there as rob reynolds was there is the police moved in to evict protests, is at the university of southern california,
8:02 am
up here on the university of southern california campus, one by one. it's protesting. students are being and tough with the plastic zip ties and led away by los angeles police officers taken under arrest to a van parked on the campus grounds. there were originally dozens of students here who formed a kind of ring in the center of this graphic area. they said that even though they were warned, they would be arrested. they were going to stand their ground. so they stayed in the police moved in, formed a ring around them, and then one by one called them over and they were arrested. they were, they did not resist arrest, we did not see any violence on the part of the police towards them. but i want to emphasize as well that prior to these arrests, this investigating this protest against the war against gaza and demanding
8:03 am
desperate of the university's ties. complete suffering of ties with any is really entities was entirely peaceful. there were no scuffles amongst students, those students were being harassed, they were simply making a protest with chance and, and slogans, and so forth. now, the university has decided that that is unacceptable. so these students are being arrested. what happens to them afterwards and what happens on this campus and other campuses across the united states in the days to come, remains to be seen. but for many of the protesters we spoke to today, they say they're going to stick, stand their ground, continue their protest until their demands are met. rob reynolds, l g 0, los angeles. it's kristin salumi has moved from columbia university in new york,
8:04 am
where i have a student demonstrations dante that last week. columbia university officials spacing mounting criticism from all sides over its handling of student demonstrators. prominent republican politicians after meeting with some jewish students on campus called on the university president to resign as colombia has allowed these lawless agitators and radicals to take over. the virus of anti semitism is spread across other campuses by some counts as many as 200 universities have a similar form of protest right now. students who faced arrest and suspension say they're the ones who need protection. many are afraid to show their face. there's, there's definitely a fear of, you know, being attacked and, and the risk of like losing career opportunities and stuff, which is really a shame that people willing to, you know, advocate for human rights are smeared in such a way. nevertheless, they are vowing to continue their encampment. student organizers say they have 3
8:05 am
demands for the university. number one, disclose their investments in israel, number 2, divest from them. and number 3, provide amnesty for students who have been suspended. they say they won't leave the grounds until that happens. many have compared their actions to what happened on campus in 1968, when columbia students held students to them and, and to the universities connection to the vietnam war. and were arrested sparking nationwide demonstrations credited with us as eventually withdrawal from the war. and the students do have the support of many jewish students and faculty. and i do not feel that this project is anti semitic in any way. i do feel that the students are highly critical of israeli politics, and i do not believe that that is inherently anti semitic at all. and i do not feel threatened as a jewish faculty member in any way, by what's happening here on this campus, except by the arrest of many of our students. the university has warned students to
8:06 am
take down their and cabin by friday morning, or based on specified consequences. christian salumi, i'll just hear of new york. then we'll southern protests across all the colleges in america. there was a launch police force deployed in austin, texas. the reason the state troopers don't want to disperse the crowds, several people are arrested as the university of texas at the protests was also rise. hundreds of students have been detained in the us since friday. jeremy syria is a professor of global leadership history and public policy university of texas. he said the crack down on the protest is only strengthening solidarity, similar to the anti war movements of the 19 sixty's. and the irony is that this kind of behavior by the police only increases the resolve of students. i cannot tell you how many students more than 15 to 20 that i spoke with,
8:07 am
who i saw at this event summer for my students. i know were students who are apathetic or may have even been favorable to the israeli side in the arguments. and they see the police acting this way. and it leads them to become more radical. and this is the story of the 19 sixty's in our society were replying that when the police attack students in this way, it makes other students sympathized with those were attacked. not the attackers. i believe that university presidents, including my own at the university of texas, are afraid they are afraid that they are going to be criticized and condemned by politicians by the governor of texas by members of congress. they're, they're afraid they're going to be condemned for allowing anti semitism and i'm against anti semitism to. i'm jewish myself. so i think anti semitism is horrible and there has been too much of it. but this, the presidents are over reacting. and what they're doing is they're creating an environment in which no one is allowed to say anything that sounds critical in any
8:08 am
way of israel or any other topic. and they're making it impossible for students to express themselves. the white house has described reports of mass graves in gaza is deeply disturbing the european union and the united nations of joined as national coals for an independent probably been to the situation on wednesday. and although 51 bodies were found in the grounds of a hospital and con eunice, within 300 has been discovered since that today. hospitals have protection under international law, but have come on the heavy as righty bump, augments us national security advisor. jake sullivan says washington wants on says joe castro has won this from washington to us. national security advisor jake sullivan, had sharp words about reports of the mass graves discovered in gaza. well, those reports were deeply disturbing. we have been in touch at multiple levels with the israeli government. we want answers, we want to understand exactly what happened. you've seen some public commentary from the adf on that,
8:09 am
but we want to know the specifics of what the circumstances of this were. and we want to see this thoroughly and transparently investigated so that the whole world can have a comprehensive answer. and we, the united states can as well, i can't speak beyond that because of course, we're in the early days of fully understanding what happened. what's been missing from the us response is any call for an independent investigation into the mass graves. that is in contrast to the u. n. and to the you that have both said, there must be an independent investigation, not just one conducted by israel alone. we are gravely concerned by the, by the report, the discovery of most grace in the founding unique. i mean, i'll, she follow speed will be something that forces us to call for an independent investigation of all the suspicions and all the circumstances. because indeed it to create the impression that there might have been violations of international human rights committed. that's why it's important to have independent investigation and
