An-Najah students confront security forces’ repression, declare US officials unwelcome on campus

The Progressive Student Labor Action Front at An-Najah University in Nablus denounced security forces’ attacks on a student protest, and demanded that they be held accountable. Furthermore, the students demanded that U.S. officials and their delegations be considered unwelcome at the university, with its lengthy and distinguished history of struggle, while the U.S. continues its participation in the war crimes of the occupier against the Palestinian people...

...Security forces not only attacked student demonstrators but also reporters and photographers, confiscating the camera of one reporter and deleting some images. On Tuesday, September 30, student organizations organized a meeting to follow up on these events and organize a protest against the suppression of student organizing and protest on campus. Student ID cards were again taken and four students were threatened with expulsion from the university.

Protesters on Tuesday again raised slogans and banners against the presence of the U.S. consul at An-Najah university and against the attacks of the security against students, whether on campus or off campus.
