LONDON — At least five people were hospitalized and 62 others were detained after a night of violence against Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam on Thursday night, authorities said.

The violence took place after a UEFA Europa League match between Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv Football Club and Dutch football club Ajax in Amsterdam on Thursday.

Israel’s National Security Headquarters told Israeli citizens staying in Amsterdam to “avoid traveling on the street and lock themselves in hotel rooms.”

Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said the situation was now calm and he was “appalled by anti-Semitic attacks on Israeli citizens”. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said he had been in touch with Schoof and called for increased security for Jewish communities in the Netherlands.

Tensions were rising ahead of last night’s match, with Amsterdam police reporting on Wednesday night that a group of people removed a Palestinian flag from the front of a building in the city center and that police “prevented a confrontation” between a group of visitors and taxi drivers.

Amsterdam police have yet to comment on the incident, but announced on Wednesday evening that “a number of security measures” had been taken ahead of the match to ensure “everything is safe and orderly”, in a post on X.

Officials in Amsterdam said there will now be extra police on the move in the coming days and extra attention “for additional security of Jewish institutions and objects”.

The authorities in Amsterdam will hold a press conference on Friday at 12 noon, where additional measures will be announced today and in the coming days.
