Google has terminated another group of 28 employees who participated in anti-Israel protests at the company's offices last week. A total of 50 Google employees have been fired by the company following the protests. 

The tech giant told Fox Business in a statement, "We continued our investigation into the physical disruption inside our buildings on April 16, looking at additional details provided by coworkers who were physically disrupted, as well as those employees who took longer to identify because their identity was partly concealed — like by wearing a mask without their badge — while engaged in the disruption." 

"Our investigation into these events is now concluded, and we have terminated the employment of additional employees who were found to have been directly involved in disruptive activity. To reiterate, every single one of those whose employment was terminated was personally and definitively involved in disruptive activity inside our buildings. We carefully confirmed and reconfirmed this." 

Last week, 28 activist employees were fired after performing sit ins in Google's corporate offices in New York, Sunnyvale, California, and Seattle on April 16 as part of the "No Tech for Apartheid" action demanding that the tech giant cut off ties to Israel.  

Google CEO Sundar Pichai said in a statement after the first round of terminations, "We have a culture of vibrant, open discussion that enables us to create amazing products and turn great ideas into action. That's important to preserve. But ultimately we are a workplace and our policies and expectations are clear: this is a business, and not a place to act in a way that disrupts coworkers or makes them feel unsafe, to attempt to use the company as a personal platform, or to fight over disruptive issues or debate politics."

On Monday, terminated Googlers had an emergency "press conference" that they live-streamed on YouTube to protest the terminations.
