Students had previously disbanded the encampment after a judge granted an interim order earlier this month.

The London School of Economics has been granted a court order indefinitely barring encampments in one of its buildings after students slept in its atrium for more than a month in support of Palestine.

LSE began legal action earlier in June, with a judge granting it an interim possession order on June 14, meaning the encampment needed to be disbanded within 24 hours after it was served. At a short hearing at Central London County Court on Friday, District Judge Morayo Fagborun-Bennett granted a possession order, meaning no encampments can be set up at the same location indefinitely.She continued: “They were served with an interim possession order and they vacated in accordance with it. There have been no breaches of the interim order.”
