TORONTO — A group of students at the University of Toronto say they have started a protest on campus to call on the university to cut its ties with Israel over the ongoing war in Gaza.

The students say in a news release that they breached a newly-installed fence around an area on campus known as King's College Circle to establish an encampment in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

Several tents could be seen set up at the centre of King's College Circle at the University of Toronto this morning, with a few police cars and private security vehicles seen parked nearby.
