According to the university, 47 students were detained by US police. The statement mentioned that the detained students could face disciplinary measures by Yale University itself, potentially leading to academic suspension.<\/p>\n<p>The university added that &#8220;actions against the students came as a result of their refusal to leave its grounds (during solidarity vigils for Palestine), which threatened the security of the entire Yale community and hindered access to university facilities,&#8221; according to the statement&#8217;s claims.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"rtl\" lang=\"ar\">\u0647\u0630\u0647
