Mayor Femke Halsema was speaking at an emergency meeting of the Amsterdam city council days after the Dutch capital was rocked by violence between Israeli football fans and men on scooters in several areas of the city.

Israeli fans were assaulted after a soccer game in Amsterdam by hordes of young people apparently riled up by calls on social media to target Jewish people, Dutch authorities said Friday.

The altercation came a week after violence erupted in Amsterdam in connection with an Israeli club team’s visit.

A week after Israeli soccer fans were attacked in the streets of Amsterdam, triggering damning accusations of a "Jew hunt" in a city with an ugly history of antisemitism, a clearer picture of what happened that night is slowly emerging.

Willem-Alexander says Jewish people must feel safe in the Netherlands after Israeli football supporters come under attack.

Amsterdam authorities are preparing for another night of protests just one day after three people were arrested for smashing a window of a tram. This comes days after an attack on Israeli soccer fans.

The violent assaults have set off a charged debate over antisemitism in the Netherlands and the country’s success in integrating immigrants.

Dozens of people armed with sticks and firecrackers set a tram on fire Monday night in Amsterdam. The tensions began last week with clashes between Israeli soccer fans and pro-Palestinian protesters.
