On Wednesday, November 13, the Dutch police detained dozens of pro-Palestinian protesters in Amsterdam. They violated a ban on demonstrations that was implemented due to violence against Israeli football fans the previous week.
This was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing The Times of Israel.
Pro-Palestinian demonstrators took to the streets of the city again, chanting anti-Israel slogans, including "Amsterdam says 'no' to genocide."
They refused to disperse upon request, leading law enforcement to detain them. The vast majority were peacefully placed on buses and removed from the square.
The last protests in Amsterdam appeared to have taken place on Sunday, November 10.
Pro-Palestinian protests are occurring at a time when the Netherlands is still coping with the aftermath of violence in Amsterdam last week, when on the night of November 7, fans of Tel Aviv's "Maccabi" were attacked by men on scooters in various parts of the Dutch capital.
Israeli tourists fell into an ambush by masked gangs who shouted pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel slogans while stalking, beating, and chasing them. Hundreds of other Israelis hid in their hotels for hours, fearing for their safety.
The Dutch police detained a large number of pro-Islamic assailants.
Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schuf labeled the attacks as "pure anti-Semitism." The police stated that the assailants were mobilized by calls on social media to attack Jews.
The Israeli government decided not to send military personnel to Amsterdam, but instead dispatched planes to evacuate fans.
In response to the incident, the Dutch authorities temporarily banned rallies and demonstrations in the country.
Meanwhile, Tel Aviv recommended that citizens avoid attending the match between the national teams of Israel and France in Paris on November 14.
