More than 100 students set up camps on the Free University of Berlin campus on Tuesday to protest Israel's war on Gaza.
The group erected tents outside the university building and unfurled banners expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Wearing keffiyehs and waving Palestinian flags, the students shouted slogans such as “Free, free Palestine!”, "Israel is a terrorist state", "Shame on you Germany.”
The university administration said in a statement that the attempt of the students to occupy the campus was “unacceptable” and it has called in the police to evict the protesters.
Since protests started last month at a number of US universities in support of Palestine, the protests have spread worldwide, including in universities across Europe.
