National University Tensions Escalate: Pro-Palestinian Demonstrators Occupy Melbourne Building

Tensions are escalating at universities nationwide, highlighted by a significant incident where pro-Palestinian demonstrators occupied a building at the University of Melbourne overnight. Similarly, at the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra, protestors claim they are being ordered to vacate the premises. At Melbourne, demonstrators unfurled a banner and staged a sit-in at the university's main campus, choosing to stay overnight. Police are monitoring the situation closely, although the university has not yet requested law enforcement to remove the protesters.
