Los Angeles (AFP) - Dozens of overturned tents, "Free Palestine" signs strewn on the lawn, keffiyehs and flashlights discarded in haste: not much of the pro-Palestinian protest encampment was left Thursday morning at the University of California, Los Angeles. After a week of occupying a central area of the sprawling campus in protest at Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, police in riot gear forcibly removed demonstrators in an operation that lasted through the night. In tense scenes, officers used flashbang explosions to disorient protesters and disperse crowds. Eventually, securit...

Washington (AFP) - US President Joe Biden insisted Thursday that "order must prevail" on college campuses after weeks of turmoil, clashes with police and mass arrests involving student protests against Israel's war with Hamas in Gaza. Biden, who until now had remained tight-lipped on the student unrest, spoke just hours after hundreds of police moved in to forcibly clear a sprawling encampment at the University of California, Los Angeles, tearing down barriers and detaining dozens of protestors. For weeks, authorities on campuses from New York to California have tried to thread the needle betw...

Washington (AFP) - President Joe Biden broke his virtual silence Thursday on the nationwide Gaza campus protests, saying the United States was not authoritarian but insisting "order must prevail." In a televised address from the White House, Biden added that there was "no place" for anti-Semitism on university campuses, which have been roiled by pro-Palestinian demonstrations amid Israel's war on Hamas in Gaza. The 81-year-old Democrat -- whose reelection bid in November faces a challenge from voters opposed to the war -- said there had to be a balance between the right to peaceful protest and...

Israel’s representative for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest has been told not to leave her hotel room other than for performances and Eurovision official events because of pro-Palestinian protests.

Swedish police are on high alert, and have even asked for reinforcements from Denmark and Norway for Europe’s biggest pop competition, which is turning out to be one of the event’s most controversial editions – mostly because of Israe...

A Portuguese-flagged container ship was hit by a drone in the far reaches of the Arabian Sea, corresponding with a claim by Yemen's Houthi rebels that they assaulted the ship there, authorities said on Tuesday. The attack on the ship, MSC Orion, occurred some 600 kilometres off the coast of Yemen and appeared to be the first confirmed deep-sea assault claimed by the Houthis since they began targeting ships in November. It suggests the Houthis — or potentially their main benefactor, Iran — might be able to strike deep into the Indian Ocean. The attack happened last Friday, according to the Join...

Tel Aviv (AFP) - US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called Wednesday on Hamas to accept a "very strong" ceasefire-for-hostages offer by Israel as he vowed to put a priority on families seeking to reunite with loved ones. In rare scenes for the top US diplomat, who has faced furor at home and abroad over President Joe Biden's support for Israel in its campaign against Hamas, Blinken was greeted outside his Tel Aviv hotel by Israelis waving US flags and chanting, "Thank you, Biden! Thank you, Blinken!" Blinken, who also met privately with hostage families, told them that freeing the hostages...
