California State Humboldt says its campus is closed after clash between students and law enforcement during pro-Palestinian protest.

Three protesters were arrested. Classes were to be conducted remotely, the school said on its website.

This demonstration was in solidarity with several other college protests across the U.S. against Israel's war with Hamas.

Protests against the war had been bubbling for months but kicked into a higher gear after more than 100 pro-Palestinian demonstrators who had camped out on Columbia University's upper Manhattan campus were arrested Thursday. Dozens more protesters have been arrested at other campuses since, and many now face charges of trespassing or disorderly conduct.
