Anti-Israel protest organizers at New York University encouraged their followers to get "plugged into" a Telegram channel that routinely promotes Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
A Telegram chat channel created by NYU protest organizers referred their followers to the "Resistance News Network," an account which advertised communications from Hamas’s commander in chief Mohammed Deif, who advertised the Oct. 7 massacres in Israel, and encouraged people to take up arms.
"Eyes on Gaza, eyes on Rafah, eyes on students everywhere. Make sure you’re plugged into Resistance News Network," the NYU Encampment Updates account wrote, linking to the channel. The organizers’ promotion of the radical channel was first observed by Jewish Insider and confirmed by the Washington Free Beacon.
