More arrests in Amsterdam over post-match violence

ai generated text

Following a match between an Israeli football team and local team Ajax in Amsterdam, police made five arrests on Thursday night on suspicion of "public violence against persons" before and after the match. The five men, all Dutch nationals aged between 18 and 37, are being held in connection with the violence. In a separate incident, dozens of people armed with sticks and fireworks set fire to a tram in Amsterdam on Monday, although it's unclear who started the riots or whether they were linked to last week's violence.

    1. We are well aware of what happened earlier with Maccabi supporters but we think that's of a different category and we condemn any violence as well, but that is no excuse whatsoever for what happened later on that night in the attacks on Jews in Amsterdam.
    2. The images and reports for Amsterdam and what we've seen this weekend of antisemitic attacks against Israelis and Jews are nothing short of shocking and reprehensible.
