UCLA anti-Israel protesters clash with police after blocking access to campus buildings

Police once again clashed with protesters at the University of California Los Angeles as anti-Israel demonstrations returned to campus.

Anti-Israel protesters rebuilt an encampment on the college grounds on Thursday, occupying space around Kerckhoff Patio. 

Protesters erected wooden barriers and blocked access to a small portion of the campus. Officials warned demonstrators to clear the "unlawful assembly" but were rebuked. 

Around noon, multiple police departments collaborated to swiftly quash the protests.
