The US Department of Education has opened an investigation against Columbia University in New York on charges of "discrimination against supporters of Palestine".

This was reported on the official page of the American Palestine Legal human rights organization.

It was reported that the New York Police Department's attempt to arrest Palestinian and pro-Palestinian students who protested the Israeli genocide in the Gaza Strip was considered a form of discrimination.

Radhika Sainath, a senior lawyer at Palestine Legal, criticized the "discriminatory" attitude of universities towards pro-Palestinians.

"The laws are very clear. "Universities may lose government funding if they do not stop the racist oppression of Palestinians and their supporters," he said.

The investigation was launched following a complaint by the Palestinian Legal Office that it "discriminated against Palestinian students and their supporters and created an unsafe environment for them."
