UPV's opening ceremony in San Sebastian has had to be postponed because of the screams of students protesting against the genocide in Israel
Protesters call for a boycott of Israel and accuse the Basque Government and the UPV of being "accomplices to the genocide." On the arrival of lehendakari Pradales there have been cries and even moments of tension, so the start of the event has been delayed by a few minutes. Representatives of the institutions and the university that attended the event have been silent waiting for the end of the screams.
