The incidents, which were accompanied by aggression and anti-Semitic slogans, unfolded after the Europa League match between Ajax Amsterdam and Maccabi Tel Aviv. The plane with the fans returned to Israel on Friday, and Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema strongly condemned the attacks, calling them “an outbreak of anti-Semitism.

According to the mayor, some groups of attackers were moving around the city on scooters in search of Israeli fans, attacking them.

According to police, the violence began on Wednesday evening, when Israeli fans tore down a Palestinian flag in the city center. This triggered an online gathering of local taxi drivers who allegedly planned a response. Later, police escorted a group of Israeli fans to a casino where about 400 people had gathered to ensure their safety.

On Friday, the Amsterdam police announced the launch of a major investigation into the numerous incidents of violence that led to the hospitalization of five people. In response to the unrest, the city banned all demonstrations for three days, and police were given extraordinary powers to ensure security. Meanwhile, international leaders, including those from Israel and the United States, expressed support for the injured fans.
