Pro-Palestinian Students Win Big: Columbia University President Shafik Resigns Under Pressure
Columbia University President Minouche Shafik has resigned following intense criticism over her handling of pro-Palestinian protests on campus.
Her resignation comes after a series of dramatic events, including the use of police to break up student demonstrations and widespread faculty backlash.
As the university grapples with the fallout, the student group Columbia Students for Justice in Palestine celebrates this victory.
Discover the details behind Shafik’s resignation and the ongoing turmoil at Columbia, which has become a focal point for pro-Palestinian activism across the US.
Columbia University President Katrina Armstrong has resigned following mounting pressure from the Trump administration. Armstrong’s resignation comes after Trump’s crackdown on pro-Palestinian student activism, which led to a $400 million funding freeze for Columbia University. The Trump administration accused Columbia of failing to address anti-Semitism on campus, prompting policy changes and Armstrong’s sudden departure. Claire Shipman has been appointed as interim president as Columbia navigates this leadership change. Stay updated on Trump’s growing influence on university policies and campus activism crackdowns.

Trump has intensified his crackdown on pro-Palestine activism as Betar US, a far-right Zionist group, submits a secret list of thousands of students for potential arrest and deportation. The group has openly taken credit for the recent arrest of Palestinian student-activist Mahmoud Khalil and has named other targets, including Columbia University’s Mohsen Mahdawi. Immigration authorities have already detained multiple students, with Trump warning this is just the beginning. Critics have condemned the move as a direct assault on free speech, while the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has designated Betar US as a hate group.

In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine.

Around 75,000 Muslim worshippers gathered at Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem for the final Friday prayers of Ramadan. Despite facing strict Israeli restrictions and reported harassment, Palestinians participated in the prayers at the sacred site. The number of worshippers this year was notably lower due to increased security measures. Al-Aqsa Mosque, a significant religious site for Muslims, remains a focal point of tensions, with ongoing restrictions on Palestinian access further intensifying regional grievances.
