A pro-Palestinian encampment is seen cordoned off by stanchions on the UCLA campus on Sunday, April 28, 2024. Things turned violent over the weekend when pro-Israeli activists held a rally of their own in proximity of the encampment. Mary Osako, vice chancellor of UCLA Strategic Communications, issued a statement Sunday saying, "UCLA has a long history of being a place of peaceful protest, and we are heartbroken to report that today, some physical altercations broke out among demonstrators on Royce Quad." "We have since instituted additional security measures and increased the numbers of our safety team members on site." Photo by Jim Ruymen/UPI Photo via Newscom (KEYSTONE/NEWSCOM/JIM RUYMEN)
