During a Nakba Day ceremony at Tel Aviv University, Israeli authorities arrested three students.

According to Amal Jamal, a lecturer at the university, the students, who are all Palestinian citizens of Israel, were first attacked by a far-right mob.

Jamal told, “What happened today was a confrontation initiated by the extreme right attacking Arab students who wanted to perform a sit-in [in commemoration of] Al-Nakba.”

He went on to say that it is disgusting that the police frequently defend far-right organizations.

A student, Eleen Nasra, said the sit-in was held to teach Jewish and international students on campus about the Holocaust.

“The fascist right group began with provoking one of the students who tried not to react,” she recounted.

“Then the police entered the area and started to swarm the students. Musta’ribeen [undercover Israeli forces disguised as Palestinians] were among the police and they started the attack.”
