Alon Roth-Snir was speaking at Essex University in Colchester, UK when 40 students disrupted the meeting.
After attempts to calm the situation failed, university officials split the students into two groups and took Mr Roth-Snir to a smaller room to continue his discussions with those not involved in the protests. The disruption from the main lecture theater was so substantial that security officers decided to evacuate the deputy ambassador who was escorted back to the railway station.
After Mr. Roth-Snir departed, Nathan Bolton, president of the student union tweeted:
"it has been a great day – free Palestine!"
"How terrible it will be for pregnant women and for nursing mothers in those days. For there will be disaster in the land and great anger against this people." Luke 21:23
