On campus: Students protest over Gaza
Hundreds of students have been arrested across the United States as they protest against Israel's military campaign in Gaza.
Sarah is at Columbia University in New York City, one of many colleges where students are protesting, but where some Jewish students say they feel threatened by the actions of demonstrators.
And Marianna takes a look at how social media, and TikTok in particular, are shaping how a new generation of voters are engaging with politics through the lens of the war in the Middle East.

• Justin Webb, Radio 4 presenter
• Sarah Smith, North America editor
