Camera-phone footage is emerging from the recent clashes that occurred in Yarmouk University. Al Ghad daily is reporting today that a ‘tribal reconciliation’ has been achieved which has reduced the tention in the university. Four people were injured in the fight, which started with a fight between two students, according to University officials (other reports suggested the fight broke out because of student club elections). Four people were injured, and the anti riot police had to intervene.
An investigation into what happened is ongoing.

Qemmet etta5allof! ma kano 3emlo el reconciliation men awwal!!
You can hear them shouting at the end: “Irbid Irbid.. ho ho” I doubt that the fight was not about a girl in the first place and then escalated into a civil war like the case in JU ! I don’t think they’ve reached a point where they fight over a subject like clubs elections!
and more details can be found here and here
some comments i had are interesting!
I heard from 10s of poeple today that a guy passed away in the big fight!
still rumors I guess!
this is sad.. I’m writing an article that might link back here. is it alright with you? and btw, ikbis doesn’t embed on my blog.. any ideas why?
Truly shameful to have this in our educational instituations. Most probably, the fight was about some rediculous issue and only the muscle flexing idiotic, ignorant students are capable of that. It shows how ‘educated’ we are…
Ahmad, do you have a video for the parliamant ‘hosheh’ or not yet?! Ya Zalameh, that was even more stupid – to confiscate and break the cameras of reporters I like it when they say, “under Qubat Al-Barlaman” … now we know what they actually do under the Quba
