Palestinian supporters take down Tabaret camp: report

Article content

An encampment set up on the lawn of Tabaret Hall at uOttawa by pro-Palestinian supporters was dismantled overnight, according to reports, ending a 10-week protest calling on the university to cut financial ties with Israel.

CTV News reported Wednesday that Labour for Palestine Ottawa and Occupy Tabaret issued a statement saying the students have “elected to vacate the encampment on Tabaret Lawn.”

“At best, this university and President are out of touch with reality. At worst, they are simply cruel, and only guided by greed and immune to the suffering of others.”

Neither the protester nor uOttawa officials were immediately available for comment.
