US presidential candidate Kamala Harris appeared to claim that Israel is committing genocide, calling it "real" during a talk in Milwaukee on Thursday.

In the videos circulated on social media on Saturday evening, Kamala Harris can be seen addressing a group of students at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee before being interrupted by a student who asks her to speak about "the genocide" in Gaza.

Harris tells the students she is "so invested" in them before being interrupted by the student who says, "And in genocide, right? Billions of dollars in genocide you invested in?"

"I respect your right to speak. I'm speaking right now, I know what you're speaking of. I want the ceasefire. I want the war to end."

The male student, who is wearing a keffiyeh, continues to ask her about the genocide while pushing through the crowd towards Harris.

Harris then gestures to the student as he is escorted out of the room by security and says to the crowd, "Listen, what he’s talking about, it’s real. It’s real. That’s not the subject that I came to discuss today, but it’s real, and I respect his voice."

UWM Police removed the heckler, who was cited for disorderly conduct, according to a university spokesperson.
