Israeli President Isaac Herzog has condemned clashes in Amsterdam after a Europa League football match, saying the “shocking images” of violence were reminiscent of the Hamas attack on October 7 last year, AFP reports.
“We see with horror this morning, the shocking images and videos that since October 7th, we had hoped never to see again: an antisemitic pogrom currently taking place against Maccabi Tel Aviv fans and Israeli citizens in the heart of Amsterdam, Netherlands,” Herzog said in a statement on X.
