We’ve just heard from two people from Britain’s Jewish community who attended the football match in Amsterdam.
Aaron, 33, says he went to the match with his friend Jacob, but they decided to leave early as they’re not huge football fans.
“We got to one of the central areas and we saw mopeds turn up and some guys started beating an Israeli guy going back to his hotel,” he says, adding they were referring to his religion and stomping on his head.
Aaron adds that they decided to intervene to help the injured man to his feet, before walking away.
“Shortly after, the same men that had attacked the Israeli came up to us right into our personal space, saying are you Jewish? We said no, we are British,” he says.
One of the men then punched him in the face, Aaron says, sharing a photo of his bloodied nose with the BBC.
“I was bleeding and have a black eye,” he says. “I’m ok but a bit shaken.”
His friend Jacob, also 33, says he saw “10 people stamping and kicking” the man they had tried to help, adding they saw “lots of little gangs chasing people”.
“They were looking for Jews not just Israelis,” he says.
