Hundreds of US university students have been arrested for protesting against Gaza bombings and US military assistance for Israel, demanding a ceasefire and divestment from companies enabling Israel's war on the Palestinian enclave.

Boston police detained around 100 people during a protest at Northeastern University, with social media footage showcasing security forces in riot gear and tents loaded onto a truck.

Northeastern University has secured the campus where protests occurred, restoring normal operations. Detained individuals with valid IDs were released and will face disciplinary proceedings, not legal action.

Northeastern protesters claimed "Kill the Jews" was heard, justifying security forces' crackdown on demonstrators using chants.
