Protestors arrested at KTH

Three people have been arrested and some 20 have been detained after a protest at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.

According to police they are suspected of for instance crime against masking ban, disobedience against law enforcement and vandalism.

Protestors at the scene declare to SVT that they have protested against Israels warfare in Gaza in connection with the fact that the Christian Democrats’ party leader Ebba Busch visited the school.

Also at Lund University there are ongoing protests against the war in Gaza.

    Anyone aware if the face coverings in this demo were face masks (covid/health protection)?

    I don’t think so. From the linked article:

    -They are scared of being suspended from the university or other consequences for protesting against the war, says one of the protestors, about why some hide their face behind for example keffiyehs.

    You can see that in the video as well.
