Protesters march through UTM, UTSC, and Sidney Smith
On October 7, the University of Toronto Mississauga Students’ Union (UTMSU) organized a campus-wide walkout to protest Israel’s ongoing violence in Gaza. Three days later, the Scarborough Campus Students’ Union (SCSU) and students at the UTSG campus followed suit.
Since Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed around 1,200 Israelis, the Israeli military has killed over 44,000 Palestinians. Israel has continued its attacks on Gaza and recently intensified its attack on the Lebanese political party and militant group Hezbollah. Since September, Israel’s attacks on Lebanon have killed over 700 people.
The Varsity attended each walkout and spoke with students about their participation in the protests. (more...)
