Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered two rescue planes to be sent to the Netherlands on Friday after violence broke out against Israeli football fans in Amsterdam last night.

Videos circulating on social media showed street fighting and intervention by riot police.

The order to send planes was taken after “a very violent incident” targeting Israeli civilians after the match between Ajax, traditionally identified as a Jewish club, and Maccabi Tel Aviv, his office said.

An eyewitness recorded video verified by Reuters showing a group of men running near Amsterdam’s central station, chasing and attacking other men as police sirens sounded.

Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said he was “shocked by the anti-Semitic attacks on Israeli civilians. This is completely unacceptable.”

In a statement on X, he said he had spoken to Netanyahu on the phone and assured him “that the perpetrators will be identified and prosecuted.”

Local police said 57 suspects were arrested after the match as pro-Palestinian demonstrators tried to reach the Johan Cruyff Stadium, even though the city had banned a protest there.

Police said fans left the stadium without incident, but clashes broke out in the city center overnight.

The Israeli army said it is preparing to immediately deploy a rescue mission coordinated by the Dutch government after the football match, in which Ajax defeated Maccabi Tel Aviv 5-0.

“The mission will be deployed using cargo aircraft and will include medical and rescue teams,” the IDF said.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has asked the Dutch government to help Israeli citizens arrive safely at the airport, Saar told his Dutch counterpart Caspar Veldkamp on Friday.
