BREAKING: UCLA Gaza Camps used encrypted Telegram chats to communicate with school staff: report


During a Human Events segment with journalist Anthony Cabassa, the reporter revealed that during the UCLA Gaza camp protest and riot, the rioters were communicating and organizing via encrypted Telegram channels that included school staff in them.  

The UCLA Gaza Camp riots where over 200 arrests this week was rife with chaos and violence. Cabassa told Posobiec in the segment that campus security stood down for hours this week when violence happened on campus. He also revealed that there was communication between leadership of the Gaza Camp protest and the school administration.  

When Posobiec asked about any communication between school administrators and the activists, Cabassa responded, "As a matter of fact, you're right. So, according to the sources I saw and the Telegram chats that I saw myself from this encampment leadership to their members that were there in the tents and there for days; there were multiple times where school administration did meet with the people inside the encampment." 

He said there had been a meeting for safety as well as other topics leading up to this past Wednesday, when police eventually descended onto the campus and arrested the activists on Thursday morning.  

The communication that took place between members of the school administration and the people heading the Gaza Camp was then relayed to other rioters via these Telegram channels, according to Cabassa.  

Additionally, the activists reportedly made a list of demands to the administration prior to the arrests on Thursday morning that included abolishing "all police and security in the campus for the protection of people of color and minorities and their Palestinian brothers," according to Cabassa.
