Eyewitnesses reported that tensions erupted in Amsterdam following the Ajax vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv match, leaving 10 'Israelis' injured, with two unaccounted for, according to Israeli Occupation foreign ministry officials.

The incident reportedly escalated after an 'Israeli' fan attempted to tear a Palestinian flag, sparking confrontations with pro-Palestinian supporters.

Media outlets indicated that several Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were attacked in various locations across the Dutch capital.

Israeli Occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered two planes to evacuate 'Israelis' from Amsterdam, urging the Dutch government to ensure their safety.

Meanwhile, the 'Israeli' National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir stated that he coordinated with authorities to facilitate the evacuation.

Amsterdam police responded by deploying additional forces amid signs of unrest in multiple areas. Reports also mentioned that the 'Israeli' military is preparing to send a rescue team, including medical units, to assist in evacuating the injured.
