<p>Students have set up encampments at universities in major Australian cities over the last two weeks to protest over Israel’s offensive in Gaza.</p>
<p>The students are demanding that universities sever all academic ties with Israel and cut off research partnerships with arms manufacturers.</p>
<p>No arrests were made, as the violence seen on some American campuses has not occurred in Australia.</p>
<p>Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters on Friday met a counter-protest supporting Israel at the University of Sydney, Australia’s oldest university.</p>
<p>The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported a scuffle between the groups.</p>
<p>Supporters of both sides later backed down because of a heavy security presence.</p>
<p>University of Sydney vice chancellor Mark Scott said there was space for both groups of protesters.</p>
<p>ADVERTISEMENT<br />
“They may strongly disagree with the matters that have been discussed. … We can host that conversation and we should be able to do that in a non-threatening way,” he told ABC.</p>
<p>Mr Scott said not all of the protesters were students, and that some might not be committed to peaceful and productive engagement.</p>
<p>“We are working with security and police,” he said.</p>
