STORYLINE:
Police in Amsterdam arrested some pro-Palestinian protesters and forcibly moved more than 260 to another location as they broke up an illegal demonstration on the Dam Square in the centre of the Dutch capital.
The officers ordered the group to move to a park in western Amsterdam where they had been granted permission to demonstrate.
The protest in Amsterdam came on the day lawmakers at the Dutch parliament in The Hague held a debate into violence around a soccer match last week between Ajax Amsterdam and Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Fans from both sides were involved in unrest; a number of Maccabi fans attacked a cab and chanted anti-Arab slogans while some men carried out “hit and run” attacks on people they thought were Jews, according to Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema.
After the match, parts of a large group of Maccabi supporters armed with sticks ran around “destroying things,” a 12-page report on the violence issued by Amsterdam authorities said.
There were also “rioters, moving in small groups, by foot, scooter or car, quickly attacking Maccabi fans before disappearing,” it said.
