Amsterdam police arrested some and relocated over 260 pro-Palestinian protesters from Dam Square to a park in western Amsterdam, where they were permitted to demonstrate. The protest coincided with a parliamentary debate in The Hague on violence at a recent Ajax vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv football match. Tensions escalated as some Maccabi fans vandalised property and chanted anti-Arab slogans, while others carried out “hit and run” attacks on presumed Jewish individuals. Authorities released a 12-page report detailing the unrest and property damage.
