“BREAKING: Hamas supporters at Yale University have taken over the main library, obstructing students from studying during finals week. The Ivy League is prioritizing the student intifada over education. Likewise, the federal government should prioritize revoking funding,” wrote Eyal Yakoby on X on Wednesday.
Yakoby also provided a picture of the protesting students, who brought signs saying “Disclose,” “Divest,” “Resist,” and “Free Palestine,” as well as keffiyehs.
The student protest follows Yale students’ passage of several anti-Israel resolutions urging the Ivy League institution to cut off its connections to Israel and to support “Palestinian scholars and students.”

On Oct. 30, Yale announced that it would adopt institutional neutrality, thereby refusing to officially comment as an institution about controversial issues that could cause widespread division in the university community.
Campus Reform has reached out to Yale for comment. This article will be updated accordingly.
