Anti-Israel student demonstrators at Columbia University claim they were sprayed with a chemical during a protest, causing headaches, fatigue, and nausea. The university has banned the alleged perpetrators from campus and is working with authorities to investigate the incident, which some claim was a hate crime.

Columbia University and the New York Police Department are investigating reports that pro-Palestinian student demonstrators were sprayed with a foul-smelling chemical during a recent event, leading the university to bar the accused individuals from campus. The interim provost stated that the incident is being treated as a possible hate crime, and the university condemned any threats or acts of violence. The investigation is ongoing, and it is unclear how many people have been barred from campus or whether they were students. This comes amid tensions related to the Israel-Hamas conflict, with demonstrations at Columbia and other American college campuses.

Akron police used chemical spray to disperse a protest march along Copley Road after declaring it an unlawful assembly. The march was organized by the family of Jayland Walker, who was fatally shot by Akron police in June 2022.

The grand jury had recently ruled that the eight Akron officers involved in Walker's death were justified, sparking new outrage and protests in the community.
