STORYLINE:
Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer team arrived back in Israel on Friday.

Attackers assaulted Israeli fans overnight in Amsterdam following the club’s match against Ajax in the Dutch capital, local authorities said.

Five people were hospitalized, according to Dutch authorities, and dozens were arrested.

It was not clear how the violence began. Dutch and Israeli leaders denounced the attacks as antisemitic.

Security concerns have shrouded matches with Israeli teams in multiple countries over the past year because of global tensions linked to the wars in the Middle East.

Ahead of Thursday night’s Europa League match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv, Amsterdam authorities had banned a planned pro-Palestinian demonstration near the stadium.
