Summary

University administrations' responses to students staging protests in support of Palestinians have varied wildly from campus to campus across the country.

The House passed the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023 in response to the protests. The bill attempts to codify a definition of antisemitism.

Meanwhile, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Hamas this week to negotiate a deal for a ceasefire in its conflict with Israel. However, Hamas leaders don't want to accept the deals that have been offered as none guarantee an end to Israel's bombardment of Palestinian-occupied areas.

And in Australia, President Anthony Albanese is taking a stand against domestic violence, describing the crime as a "national crisis."

We cover the most important stories from around the world in the international hour of the News Roundup.
