"More than two dozen pro-#Palestinian protesters were arrested on Monday night at the #UniversityOfWashington in Seattle after they occupied an engineering building and set dumpsters on fire.
The protest group, called #SuperUW, occupied the Interdisciplinary Engineering Building to demand that the university sever its ties with #Boeing, as the aerospace company has military contracts which the students say “are used by #Israel in their US-funded genocide of Palestinian people”.
