- New York City police, wearing protective gear, cleared the building at university request and arrested about 80 people, most facing trespassing or disorderly conduct charges.
- The State Department announced it will examine the visa statuses of individuals involved in the protest for potential deportation, while Columbia University remains tight-lipped about the duration of suspensions as investigations continue.
- The suspensions and campus bans reflect ongoing tensions at Columbia, where federal funding was revoked and international students detained over handling protests related to the Gaza conflict.
