Security is tight as pro-Palestinian protesters demonstrate outside the venue of the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner where President Joe Biden will make what is a traditionally lighthearted address amid protests and boycott calls over the conflict in Gaza. IMAGES
A tense confrontation between pro-Palestinian demonstrators and around fifty pro-Israeli demonstrators broke out in front of the Sciences Po Paris campus, as a pro-Palestinian mobilisation had been disrupting the smooth running of the school for two days. IMAGES
Demonstrators at the University of Texas, Austin condemn the school's decision to involve police in a pro-Palestine protest on campus after 34 students were arrested. Students at some of the country's most prestigious universities have staged occupations over the growing human toll of Israel's war with Hamas. IMAGES
Protesters chanting slogans against Israel's offensive in Gaza gather outside the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Protesters, some wearing Palestinian keffiyeh scarves, chant: "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free." The UN's top court has handed down its verdict in a landmark case brought by South Africa that Israel should do everything it can to prevent any acts of genocide in Gaza. IMAGES
The White House says US President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a call that he still backs future statehood for the Palestinians, amid tensions between the two leaders over the issue. "The president still believes in the promise and the possibility of a two-state solution. He recognizes that it's going to take a lot of hard work," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby tells reporters. SOUNDBITE
