Six student groups at Russell Group universities are being investigated for supporting militant anti-Israel activists.

Almost two dozen societies at 19 British universities declared their “unwavering solidarity” with Palestine Action , the Extinction Rebellion-linked activist group.

Palestine Action has conducted a campaign of trespass, vandalism and criminal damage against companies and buildings it claims are linked to “ Zionism ” since the Hamas terror attacks on Oct 7 2023 .
