Overall Context: “We’re witnessing protests everywhere,” Trump stated to journalists, alluding to the ongoing pro-Palestinian and anti-war demonstrations while exiting court during his New York hush money trial.

construction of an artificial port begins in Gaza, the movement in support of the Palestinians spreads to American campuses
Israel continued to bomb several areas of the Gaza Strip on Thursday, such as the town of Rafah. The Israeli army says it is ready to carry out a large-scale ground operation against Hamas in Rafah, a border area with Egypt which is home to around a million Palestinian civilians.
The health ministry in the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip announced a new toll of 34,305 people killed in the Gaza Strip since the start of the war on October 7. In twenty-four hours, at least 43 additional deaths were recorded, according to a press release from the ministry which reports 77,293 injured in more than two hundred days of war.
More than 250 people have been kidnapped by Hamas and 129 remain captive in Gaza, 34 of whom have died according to Israeli officials.
Construction of artificial port begins in Gaza
The United States has begun construction of a pier in Gaza, the Pentagon announced Thursday. American military ships “began to build (…) the temporary port and the jetty at sea »Pentagon spokesperson General Patrick Ryder told the press.
This temporary seaport should allow military or civilian ships to deposit their cargo. Aid must then be brought by logistical support boats to a jetty on the coast. U.S. officials said the operation would not involve “ground troops” in the Palestinian territory at war. However, American soldiers will be near the Gaza Strip during the construction of the pier, which must be supervised by Israeli troops. NGOs will probably be responsible for distributing the aid once delivered to the territory, the Pentagon had already indicated.
The movement in support of Gaza gains momentum on American campuses
From Los Angeles to Atlanta, from Austin to Boston, via Chicago, the movement of pro-Palestinian American students is growing by the hour after leaving Columbia University in New York more than a week ago. Some of the most prestigious universities in the world are affected, such as Harvard, Yale and Princeton.
The scenes across the country follow one another and are similar: students set up tents on their campus, to denounce the military support of the United States for Israel and the humanitarian catastrophe in the Gaza Strip. Then they are dislodged
