Raising of the Palestinian flag at Harvard University

Harvard University students raised the Palestinian flag for one hour to protest against Israel's genocide in the Gaza Strip, demanding an end to Washington's aid to Tel Aviv, and in solidarity with the people of Gaza.
The president of Harvard University previously threatened to refer students to a disciplinary committee if the protests continued.
However, despite this threat, student protesters raised the Palestinian flag over the John Harvard statue.
Student organizations in the Gaza Strip have praised the spontaneous growth of pro-Palestinian student associations at dozens of US universities, calling their emergence historic.
Support for Gazans and protests against the policy of US President Joe Biden's government of total support for the Israeli regime this time were started by various groups of American university students.
According to Reuters, since the beginning of protests against Israel's war in Gaza under the name "Gaza Solidarity Movement" by Columbia University in New York and its spread to other American universities, more than 550 people have been arrested.
