Crowds supporting Palestine and Israel faced off at the University of Texas at Austin on Thursday, April 25, a day after more than 50 people were arrested during a pro-Palestine protest on the campus.

Footage filmed by The Texas Horn shows opposing protesters chanting at the same time.

In a statement, UT-Austin president Jay Hartzell defended Wednesday’s law-enforcement response, writing that the university “held strong,” while some UT faculty members issued a statement condemning Hartzell and UT administrative leaders’ “militarized” actions. Credit: The Texas Horn via Storyful
