Police clear pro-Palestinian protest camp and arrest 33 at DC campus as mayor's hearing is canceled
==========
Police cleared a pro-Palestinian tent encampment at George Washington University and arrested 33 demonstrators. The crackdown led to the cancellation of a hearing by the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. Tensions have been rising in protests against the Israel-Hamas war on campuses across the US and Europe. Police also broke up an encampment at the University of Massachusetts, arresting about 130 people. Since April 18, over 2,600 people have been arrested on 50 campuses in protests against the war. Other schools have allowed protests to continue, while some have cracked down due to disruptions and safety concerns.
