Pro-Palestinian protesters have engaged in a demonstration at McGill University in Canada, where they tore up a newly laid grass lawn. The protest, which involved chanting and waving Palestinian flags, was aimed at showing solidarity with Gazans and demanding an end to what they described as the "Israeli genocide in Gaza." The lawn had been recently re-grassed following damage from a previous encampment. The incident has sparked discussions about campus unrest and the appropriate response to such acts of vandalism.
