STUDENTS have launched an occupation at the University of Manchester demanding the institution sever its links with Israel.
Between 50 and 100 students have taken over the university’s Samuel Alexander building in protest at its links with two universities in Israel and a research partnership with British-based transnational “defence” and aerospace firm BAE Systems.
BAE Systems makes parts for F35 war planes supplied to Israel.
