Oxford University students have had their exams cancelled after a pro-Palestine mob stormed the campus this morning.

A group of around six protesters caused the disruption to students taking end-of-year exams in the East Writing School building of Exam Schools just off the High Street of the historic city.

The Oxford Action for Palestine group who have staged encampments since May 6 said this morning’s protest was not aligned with their group. 

According to the Oxford Mail, protesters “hung the flag and chanted out the window”, but were then brought “under control”. 

According to reports, the protest occurred at around 9.15am this morning during the middle of exam season at the famous academic institution.

In a statement, a spokesperson for the Oxford Union said: The university is disappointed with this morning’s occupation of the exam schools and the absolutely unacceptable disruption caused to our students.

“We are putting into place contingency plans to ensure all students will have the opportunity to sit their examinations with as little disruption as possible. 

“It is unclear who the occupying group are representing, as they claim to be acting without the knowledge of the OA4P encampments. While the University supports the right to peaceful protest within the law and our rules, this action plainly goes beyond the bounds of acceptable protest.”

In a statement, a spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said: ” Thames Valley Police is aware of a protest at Oxford University which started at around 9am this morning (13/6).
