Protesters Disrupt Harvard-Yale Football Game to Call for Gaza Ceasefire
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In New Haven, Connecticut, hundreds of students and alumni from Yale and
Harvard brought a football game between the two universities to a halt
for nearly two hours Saturday as they called for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Protesters waved Palestinian flags and banners that read "End the
Occupation; End the Genocide" and "Free Palestine." They also demanded
Yale and Harvard divest from weapons manufacturers that supply Israel's
military.
