A new pro-Palestine protest started on Woudestein campus on Thursday afternoon. Several dozen students gathered in the plaza in front of the food court with tents, a first aid station and food and drinks. University security was present in large numbers, but the demonstration was allowed to go ahead.<\/p>\n

The atmosphere is relaxed at the start of the protest with lots of music and people singing along.<\/span><\/p>

Some of the protesters have covered their faces with Palestinian scarves, there is music and a steady stream of slogans against the war in Gaza. The demands to the Executive Board (CvB) are still the same: to make transparent all contacts and collaborations with Israeli institutions and to break those ties.<\/p>\n

On social media, protest group Rotterdam Students for Palestine announced early this afternoon that there would be a protest. How long it will last and whether there are plans to spend the night on campus, as already happened at other universities, the protesters did not yet say.<\/p>\n\n\t
