At least 10 hurt in attacks throughout the city after Europa League game; fans: 'We were attacked, it seemed planned'; PM orders airlift to evacuate Israelis
An Arab taxi driver was also attacked by mobs who appeared to be with the Israeli fans, although police said they couldn’t identify the nationality of the attackers as no arrests were made.
A group of Israeli fans gathered in the Dam Square on Wednesday were filmed sparking confrontations with locals, shouting “Fuck you” at some of them and “Fuck you Palestine”.
Absolutely this. I saw the videos first and read newspaper articles later. Nowhere in the articles did they mention the chants and the ripping off of flags, I saw both in those videos. It’s crazy how even violent hooligans are now portrayed as victims just because it fits the narrative.
These were basketball fans, and for a completely unimportant match. It was quite incongruous with the atmosphere in the venue and the attitude of the other team’s fans. Very weird!
No news outlet is going to report on that but there are videos of the racist and pro genocide chants. Amsterdam has a large Palestinian community in which many people have family members that were murdered by those IDF pigs.
It keeps baffling me how Dutch media is even more biased towards *srael than *sraeli media. But it’s probably because Dutch people would actually be shocked to read it while most *sraeli’s probably support the racism.
They literally ran through the streets ripping and burning Palestinian flags and shouting pro genocide chants one day ago. They’re scum.
The Israel supporters also beat up a cab driver.

If anyone wants to know what kind of people they are, this shows it. They believe themselves superior to anyone and they extend empathy to no one.

Yes I’ve not had good experiences with Israeli sports fans, they take it much too seriously.
I think that’s football fans in general to be honest.

Such people aren’t fans of the sport, they go primarilly to cause trouble in a group.
I believe you, but i can’t find anything on that. All the searches just refer to the violence in this story

At least Times of Israel picked it up.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that it’s being published on national news here in Australia

Definitely quite a bit of hooligans, not an excuse for violence imo
fighting back against hooligans who pillage and rampage through the streets is not justified?
How is running after individuals and beating them up that may have had nothing to do with this group is justified?
