NUS issued a warning on Saturday afternoon soon after the video appeared and reiterated that NUS "does not condone any form of violence on any of its campuses".

The incident appears to have been at the main Lepapaigalagala NUS campus at Vaivase.

The fight appeared to be between two females, one of whom was wearing a student nurse uniform.

NUS said it had policies and processes to deal with any student, staff member or visitor who disrespected and violated the rights of others to a safe environment of learning.
