As Israel is rocked by protests following the recent killings of six hostages in Gaza, demonstrations surrounding the Israel-Hamas conflict are also returning to US campuses as students return for fall semester.
Protesters were seen on Tuesday at Columbia University in New York City, where some of the most high-profile campus demonstrations over the war occurred last spring. The demonstrators are renewing calls for the university to end relationships with companies tied to Israel.
