The final paragraph in the article is also revealing:

In February, McGill said it would divest from companies listed in the Carbon Underground 200, a list of the top 100 coal and the top 100 oil and gas publicly-traded reserve holders, following a years-long campaign by students and faculty members.

Good move on McGill University's part, even if it's 2024. Better late than never.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A group of students at McGill University have spent more than three weeks on hunger strike in an effort to force the Canadian college to divest from “companies supporting the Israeli military”.

“McGill has ultimately pushed us to take this extreme form of action and put our bodies and our health and our lives on the line to make them know that it is absolutely unacceptable that they use our tuition money to invest in this way.”

Amine said the McGill administration had acknowledged the strike, and agreed to a public forum on the issue, before cancelling the meeting.

Chadi, an undergraduate student who asked that his last name not be published, said Friday was his 21st day of continuous hunger strike.

McGill on Friday issued a statement saying it is “concerned about the well-being of the students participating in this initative”.

These students have chosen a different approach; our hope is that they will understand that university policies will not be determined in this way before their well-being is affected.
