The American flag was re-raised at City College of New York after anti-Israel protesters removed it and replaced it with a Palestinian flag at the Harlem Heights campus.

"An incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted @CityCollegeNY in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising Old Glory once again on their campus flagpole," NYPD Deputy Commissioner Kaz Daughtry wrote on X.

The Palestinian flag had been flying at CCNY since protesters raised it last week when they set up an encampment at the public institute.

Video from Wednesday morning captured members of the NYPD standing atop the base of the flagpole as they worked to remove the quad color flag, where they ripped it from the rope before tossing it to the ground.

The American flag was subsequently raised back up during an impromptu ceremony along with a speech from Daughtry.

Former President Donald Trump reacted to NYPD storming Columbia's campus on Tuesday evening, calling authorities "incredible" in a post on Truth Social.

"We are in constant communication with university officials," he posted "Our priority is and always will be public safety for all."

NYPD spokesman Carlos Nieves confirmed Columbia University's Hamilton Hall was secure and the campus' anti-Israel encampent was fully cleared out after authorities stormed the campus on Tuesday evening.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes (D-NY) has placed blame on Mayor Adams and Columbia's leadership as NYPD raids the Ivy League school's campus.

"If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents," Ocasio-Cortez wrote on X. "Our leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making."

Congressman Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) said he is "outraged by the level of police presence" at Columbia University and CCNY campuses for what he calls "nonviolent student protestors."

"The militarization of college campuses, extensive police presence, and arrest of hundreds of students are in direct opposition to the role of education as a cornerstone of our democracy," Bowman said.

"I call upon the Columbia administration to stop this dangerous escalation before it leads to further harm, and allow the faculty back onto campus so that all parties can collectively come to a solution that centers humanity over hate."

Columbia University announced an update after news broke of NYPD storming the Ivy League school's campus.

"We regret that protesters have chosen to escalate the situation through their actions. After the University learned overnight that Hamilton Hall had been occupied, vandalized, and blockaded, we were left with no choice," the statement read.

"Columbia public safety personnel were forced out of the building, and a member of our facilities team was threatened. We will not risk the safety of our community or the potential for further escalation."

Columbia added the decision was made to "restore safety and order to our community."

"We believe that the group that broke into and occupied the building is led by individuals who are not affiliated with the University.  Sadly, this dangerous decision followed more than a week of what had been productive discussions with representatives of the West Lawn encampment."
