Pro-Palestine student groups at Russell Group universities are being investigated for supporting militant anti-Israel activists.

Almost two dozen societies at 19 British universities declared their “unwavering solidarity” with Palestine Action, the Extinction Rebellion-linked activist group, in November.

Palestine Action has conducted a campaign of trespass, vandalism and criminal damage against companies and buildings it claims are linked to “Zionism” since the Hamas terror attacks on Oct 7 2023.
