Overview

• Militants from JUP and the libertarian group Somos Libres fought in the halls of the Faculty of Law, with viral videos capturing punches, shoves and a death threat shouted during the melee.
• The clash escalated after JUP members placed a flag over the Somos Libres table following days of reciprocal vandalism, including graffiti on Peronist imagery and damaged materials.
• The Faculty of Law repudiated the violence and said it will apply the university’s disciplinary regime once complaints are received and responsibilities are determined.
• The Ministry of Capital Humano contacted university authorities and reiterated that rectors are responsible for campus security and are the only officials empowered to request security forces.
• University sources reported police outside the building and no new incidents by late afternoon, a meeting was agreed by both groups to cool tensions, and national figures including President Javier Milei commented on the episode.
