The University of Toronto's anti-Israel encampment, organized by The People's Circle for Palestine, has been cleared following a court injunction. Pro-Palestinian protesters agreed to abide by the order to vacate the encampment by 6 p.m. on July 3, 2024. All tents were removed ahead of the 6 p.m. deadline, and the encampment was officially cleared. The encampment had raised concerns about safety and access for students and faculty on campus. Pro-Israel protesters toppled a papier-mâché olive tree at 5:59 p.m. just before the deadline.
