Aerial footage of the demonstration captured by Sky5 showed protesters, some wearing face coverings and kaffiyehs fashioning a barricade of toppled golf carts and picnic tables with umbrellas around the perimeter of the building earlier in the day. In front of one of the building’s entrances, several demonstrators sat in chairs chained to cement columns.
Another individual was seen spraying a fire extinguisher at the building over what appeared to be red-colored paint on the ground. Demonstrators had established an encampment on another part of the university’s campus where they have been for some 40 days, according to reporting from the Los Angeles Times.
