Hamas official says Gaza ‘massacres’ lead to scenes like Amsterdam unrest

Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri says riots in Amsterdam following a European League match reflect a response to Israel’s continued “massacres” in Gaza with no international intervention to stop the killing, Al Jazeera reports.

“The events in Amsterdam confirm that the ongoing genocide in Gaza, broadcast live without international action to halt it and hold those responsible accountable, can lead to such spontaneous reactions,” Abu Zuhri said.

“Ending the genocide in Gaza is fundamental to respecting and protecting human rights, ensuring regional and global peace and security.”
