The University of Melbourne has warned “external actors” they could be referred to police for trespassing as a mass sit-at its Parkville campus that has led to nearly 250 classes being cancelled continues for the third straight third day.

The University of Melbourne has told anyone taking part in the pro-Palestine sit-in at its Parkville campus who isn't a staff member or student to leave the grounds.

Pro-Palestine protesters continue to occupy the Arts West building at Melbourne University. Picture: David Crosling/ News Corp Australia “The University of Melbourne holds an ethical responsibility to end its moral and material support for the state of Israel,” Unimelb for Palestine said on Instagram.

“There is no doubt that this group has under-estimated their intimidatory impact on members of our community.” The group is reportedly meeting with university officials on Friday afternoon and then hold a press conference at 3.30pm.
