Punjab Times (English Edition)

May 09, 2025

At least 80 people were arrested on Wednesday evening after a group of mask-clad pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched into Columbia University's Butler Library and occupied a reading room, reigniting tensions over the Gaza war on US campuses.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the Trump Administration was reviewing the visa status of the "trespassers and vandals" who took over Columbia University's library. "Pro-Hamas thugs are no longer welcome in our great nation," he said in a post on X.

The protest at Columbia University began around 3 pm (local time), when masked protesters, many of whom were wearing keffiyehs, entered the second-floor reading room of Butler Library. Videos and photographs shared on social media showed protesters standing on tables, beating drums and unfurling banners saying "Strike For Gaza" and "Liberated Zone" beneath the chandeliers of the Lawrence A Wein Reading Room.
