Several Maccabi Tel Aviv football fans were injured during riots after Thursday’s match against Dutch side Ajax

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered two planes to be dispatched to Amsterdam to bring back Israeli fans who were violently assaulted by an anti-Israel mob in the Dutch capital, according to Netanyahu’s office.

Supporters of Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv football team were attacked in Amsterdam on Thursday night as they left the stadium after a Europa League match against Dutch side Ajax.

At least ten Israelis were injured in the attacks, but the severity of their injuries remains unclear, the Israeli Foreign Ministry stated, adding that the affected fans are currently out of contact. It advised Israeli citizens not to leave their hotels.

Israel’s National Security Council has urged people not to display Israeli or Jewish symbols in public.
