57 people have been arrested after clashes between Israeli soccer fans and pro-Palestinian protesters in Amsterdam.The Israeli prime minister said two planes would be sent to the Dutch capital to bring the Israeli citizens back to Tel Aviv.
The clashes reportedly erupted despite a ban on a pro-Palestinian demonstration imposed by Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema, who had feared that clashes would break out between protesters and supporters of the Israeli soccer club. "I followed the news from Amsterdam with disgust," Mr Schoof said in a post on X, continuing that he was in touch with his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu, on the incident.
Israel's national security ministry has also urged its citizens in the Dutch city to stay in their hotel rooms following the attacks, the prime minister's office said in a second statement.
