Gaza protests: Pro-Palestinian encampment set up at University of Calgary
A student-led pro-Palestinian encampment was established at the University of Calgary campus on Thursday morning, joining the dozens of protests happening on campuses across Canada and the U.S. The Calgary Student Movement is leading the encampment and protest, according to a news release on Thursday. The encampment, called the Mohkinstsis Liberated Zone, will stay in place until the university meets the group’s demands, the news release said. The group is demanding the university completely and permanently divest from all corporations involved directly and indirectly in the conflict between Israel and Hamas, which escalated last October. Calgary Student Movement is also calling on the university to condemn Israel’s actions toward Palestinians. Doug Vaessen reports.
