Columbia University Cracks Down On Pro-Palestine Student Activists.
Columbia University witnessed fresh unrest as pro-Palestinian protesters occupied Butler Library, prompting the university to summon the NYPD. Several demonstrators were arrested for trespassing after ignoring dispersal warnings. Tensions soared after the Trump administration pulled $400M in funding over antisemitism claims and began visa reviews of protesters. Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed efforts to deport international demonstrators. Critics say the administration is using immigration and anti-terror laws to silence student dissent. Columbia leadership condemned the unrest, calling it a disruption of academic order.

France, the UK, and Canada have issued a strongly-worded joint statement condemning Israel's intensified military offensive in Gaza. The three nations demand an immediate ceasefire, full humanitarian aid access, and criticize Israel’s approval of minimal food aid as “wholly inappropriate” under international law. They warn of targeted sanctions over West Bank settlement expansions and condemn inflammatory rhetoric from Israeli officials. The trio reaffirms support for a two-state solution ahead of the June 18 Palestinian statehood conference and urges Hamas to release all remaining hostages.

At least 24 Palestinians, including women and children, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a tent camp for displaced families in Khan Younis, Gaza. The strike came as Israel intensified its military assault over the past 72 hours, killing hundreds. Tents caught fire, and scores were wounded. Hamas condemned the attack as a “new brutal crime” and blamed the U.S. for enabling the violence. Despite renewed ceasefire talks in Doha led by Egypt, Qatar, and the U.S., no breakthrough has been reported as fighting escalates further in the enclave.
