TOP HEADLINE: Around 60 students, faculty and community members gathered outside the Moritz College of Law at approximately 5:30 p.m. Thursday to protest the Israel-Hamas war and demand Ohio State’s divestment from Israeli companies.
The protest — which was organized by Students for Justice in Palestine, also known as SJP, and Moritz Law Students for Justice in Palestine, also known as MLSJP — marks the first of the semester for both organizations.
The war in Gaza began Oct. 7, 2023 after Hamas — a Palestinian militant group — entered neighboring Israeli towns on a major Jewish holiday, Simchat Torah, where about 1,200 people were killed, according to NPR.
