Demonstrators chant 'Amsterdam is saying no to genocide' and 'Free Palestine,' days after Israeli soccer fans in the Dutch city were hunted down by gangs of masked assailants

Officials said friction had been growing in the lead-up to the soccer match, with the antisemites who led the attack calling for an organized “Jew hunt” in the city.

Israel's government sent two rescue planes to Amsterdam to evacuate its citizens who were injured in an outbreak of violence linked to a soccer game.
