University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Public Safety Aide officers stand guard facing the lawns in front of the Royce Hall, Powell Library and Kaplan Hall where a pro-Palestinian encampment was dismantled last week, in Los Angeles, California, on May 6, 2024. Demonstrators have gathered on at least 40 US university campuses since April 17, often erecting tent camps to protest against the soaring death toll in the Gaza Strip. Nearly 2,000 people have been detained, according to US media, in demonstrations reminiscent of protests against the Vietnam War. (Photo by Etienne LAURENT / AFP)
