Paris, SANA-Protesters angry over Israeli occupation’s war on Gaza have gathered at Sorbonne University in Paris, chanting “Free Palestine” at the university’s gates while some students set up tents in the courtyard.
Days after similar protests at the elite Paris Institute of Political Studies (Sciences Po), Monday’s gathering at the Sorbonne was the latest sign that demonstrations on United States campuses were spilling over to Europe as Zionist devastating war on Gaza is in its seventh month.
Agencies reported that the protests were peaceful as students urged the institution – one of the world’s oldest universities – to condemn Israel’s actions.
Police sought to secure the street with the Sorbonne’s main entrance as they faced a group of about 50 students.
