Protesters at UC Berkeley have set up tents on the steps of Sproul Hall as part of a 'Gaza Solidarity Encampment' demonstration. They are calling for divestment from companies with ties to Israel.
The protesters aim to urge the University of California to financially divest from corporations supporting Israel, cut ties with Israeli universities, protect Palestinian students, and end the violence in Gaza.
UC Berkeley spokesperson stated that the university does not intend to change its investment policies, prioritizing academic interests amidst the protests.
The University of California Police Department did not respond to inquiries about potential arrests related to the protests.
