DOJ sues UCLA over alleged ‘Judenrein’ conditions during anti-Israel encampment

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Justice Department sued the University of California, Los Angeles, on Monday, accusing the university of allowing Jewish students to face a «hostile educational environment» during months of anti-Israel protests and encampment unrest that left students assaulted, blocked from campus buildings and fearful of attending class.
«The occupiers largely succeeded in their goal of making the heart of campus Judenrein — or at least free of Jews who did not share their desire to annihilate Israel,» the lawsuit stated.
In the 53-page complaint, the Justice Department accused UCLA of violating Title VI protections by showing «deliberate indifference» toward discrimination against Jewish students, allegations that could jeopardize federal funding.
«UCLA was deliberately indifferent to the suffering of its Jewish and Israeli students and declined to take meaningful action to protect them,» DOJ said.

The lawsuit is part of a broader Trump administration effort to crack down on antisemitism tied to anti-Israel protests that spread across college campuses following Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 attacks on Israel
DOJ alleged that UCLA’s Equity, Diversity and Inclusion office «routinely ignored» more than 100 complaints of antisemitic harassment, which ranged from Jewish students being blocked from campus buildings to being beaten, pepper-sprayed and slapped with sticks. The Justice Department argued that the university’s «decision to ignore» these complaints violated Title VI, suggesting that the school could lose federal funding and pay restitution to the government.
The lawsuit’s central allegation focuses on UCLA’s handling of the anti-Israel protest encampment that formed on campus in late April 2024 and lasted about a week. At the time, anti-Israel encampments popped up on dozens of college campuses across the country in response to escalating tensions in the Gaza war. The conduct within the encampment prompted the Trump administration to create an antisemitism task force that visited UCLA.
The anti-Israel encampment was set up on April 25, 2024, sparking complaints that protesters formed «human phalanxes» to block Jewish students from accessing buildings and other parts of campus. The lawsuit also alleges that one Jewish student was kicked to the ground and knocked unconscious.

Police did not clear the encampment until May 2, 2024, during what was described as a chaotic scene in which anti-Israel protesters clashed with officers using pepper spray and fire extinguishers.
Confrontations at UCLA between anti-Israel protesters and police continued as six UCLA police officers were injured on June 10, 2024, during an attempt to create a new encampment.

Even after voicing concerns over the violence seen during the spring 2024 anti-Israel protests, UCLA school safety officers were instructed to prioritize «de-escalation» rather than aggressively enforcing school policies during future anti-Israel protests that sprang up in 2025 and 2026.
At one Students for Justice of Palestine demonstration held on Oct. 7, 2025, officers stood by and did not engage even though some of the participants were breaking the campus’ «no masking rule.» An officer was asked why they weren’t enforcing the rules, and he replied by saying he «not that high up on that totem pole» to make that call.
The lawsuit heavily cited the findings of UCLA’s own task force in the lawsuit to back up its claims that school leadership failed to properly protect Jewish students on campus.

«Indeed, UCLA’s Task Force found that ‘throughout most of 2023-2024, campus leadership repeatedly decided not to enforce federal law, state law, and University and campus rules,’ ‘resulting in failure to protect the Constitutional rights,’ of Jews on campus,» the lawsuit stated.
The lawsuit cited a poll conducted of Jewish students finding that 59.6% of students «reported spending less time on campus due to antisemitism and anti-Israeli bias» and and that 41.4% considered leaving the school because of antisemitism.

Comisión Nacional de Emergencias declara alerta verde en varias regiones de Costa Rica ante consolidación del fenómeno de El Niño

La Comisión Nacional de Emergencias (CNE) declaró alerta verde para varias regiones de Costa Rica debido a la consolidación del fenómeno climático de El Niño y los posibles impactos que podría generar durante los próximos meses en distintas zonas del país.
La decisión fue tomada tras los análisis presentados por el Instituto Meteorológico Nacional (IMN), que advierten una disminución considerable en las lluvias y un aumento en las temperaturas en regiones como el Pacífico Norte, Pacífico Central, Valle Central y sectores de la zona norte.
Según explicaron las autoridades, el fenómeno influirá en las condiciones climáticas durante el resto del año, provocando una reducción en las precipitaciones que podría oscilar entre el 25% y el 50%, dependiendo de la región.
“La decisión se basa en el análisis del Instituto Meteorológico Nacional, que advierte una disminución de las lluvias en relación con el año anterior y un aumento de las temperaturas para los próximos meses”, señaló Alejandro Picado, presidente de la CNE.
La declaratoria de alerta verde aplica para el Pacífico Norte y el Pacífico Central, además de 29 cantones ubicados en el Valle Central.
Entre las localidades incluidas se encuentran San José, Escazú, Santa Ana, Desamparados, Alajuela, Grecia, Mora y La Unión, entre otros cantones considerados vulnerables ante posibles afectaciones relacionadas con sequías, estrés hídrico y aumento en el consumo de agua y electricidad.
Las autoridades indicaron que la lista completa de cantones puede consultarse a través de los canales oficiales de la Comisión Nacional de Emergencias y plataformas digitales del Gobierno.
Aunque el escenario predominante apunta a condiciones más secas de lo habitual, la institución aclaró que el fenómeno de El Niño no elimina la posibilidad de lluvias intensas y eventos aislados de fuerte precipitación.
Por esa razón, la CNE aseguró que mantendrá vigilancia permanente sobre las condiciones meteorológicas en todo el territorio nacional.

El Gobierno de la República anunció que próximamente dará a conocer una serie de acciones interinstitucionales dirigidas a reducir el impacto del fenómeno climático en sectores estratégicos.
Entre las principales preocupaciones figuran el abastecimiento de agua potable, la agricultura, la salud pública y la generación eléctrica, especialmente ante la posibilidad de una prolongada disminución de lluvias en distintas regiones del país.
Costa Rica ya ha enfrentado anteriormente episodios asociados al fenómeno de El Niño que provocaron sequías, pérdidas agrícolas, incendios forestales y restricciones en el uso de agua, principalmente en Guanacaste y comunidades del Pacífico.

Las autoridades también monitorean el posible aumento en las temperaturas, debido a que las condiciones secas suelen incrementar la demanda eléctrica y generar presión sobre los sistemas de abastecimiento hídrico.
Ante el escenario previsto para los próximos meses, la Comisión Nacional de Emergencias hizo un llamado a la población para mantenerse informada únicamente a través de medios oficiales y adoptar medidas preventivas desde ahora.
La institución recomendó hacer un uso responsable del agua potable y de la electricidad, especialmente en las regiones donde se prevé mayor disminución de lluvias.
Además, recordó que la alerta verde corresponde a una fase preventiva que permite activar monitoreo, coordinación institucional y preparación anticipada ante posibles afectaciones derivadas de las condiciones climáticas.
El fenómeno de El Niño se produce por el calentamiento anómalo de las aguas del océano Pacífico ecuatorial y suele alterar los patrones normales de lluvia y temperatura en distintas partes del mundo, incluyendo Centroamérica.
En Costa Rica, históricamente se relaciona con períodos más secos en el Pacífico y Valle Central, mientras algunas regiones del Caribe pueden experimentar condiciones más lluviosas de lo habitual.
Las autoridades insistieron en que el monitoreo continuará de forma constante y reiteraron el llamado a la ciudadanía para colaborar con medidas de ahorro y prevención mientras evoluciona el comportamiento climático en el país.

The new head of Hamas’ military wing has been taken out by Israeli forces in an airstrike.
Mohammed Odeh, who was «responsible for planning and coordinating Hamas terrorists’ infiltration and attack targets during the October 7 Massacre,» was killed in an operation in northern Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces announced Wednesday.
«Odeh served as the Head of Hamas’ military wing following the elimination of Izz al-Din al-Haddad,» according to the IDF, which shared a photo showing Odeh among other now-deceased Hamas leadership.
«Odeh was responsible for the murder, abduction, and wounding of many Israeli citizens and IDF soldiers,» Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a joint statement. «We will continue to pursue anyone who took part in the October 7 massacre. Sooner or later, Israel will reach them all.»

Haddad was eliminated by an Israeli Air Force strike in Gaza City earlier this month, military officials said.
«The IDF will continue to pursue our enemies, strike them, and hold accountable everyone who took part in the October 7 Massacre. We will not relent until we reach them all — this is our duty to all those who returned and to all our civilians,» IDF Chief of the General Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir was quoted as saying following Haddad’s death.
The IDF said, «Following the elimination of his predecessors, Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Sinwar,» Haddad had «assumed control of Hamas and worked to rebuild its military capabilities and infrastructure — a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.»
