Yale University students walk out of commencement protesting Israeli war in Gaza, Yale's ties to weapons makers, and response to pro-Palestinian demonstrations. At least 150 students seated near the front of the audience stood up together, turned their backs to the stage, and paraded out of the ceremony through Phelps Gate, retracing their steps during the processional into the yard. Many of the protesters carried small banners with such slogans as "Books not bombs" and "Divest from war."
