Rioting broke out when other groups at the National Monument chanted pro-Palestinian slogans at the Israeli fans, Dutch media reported. Footage later emerged of men being chased and dragged down cobblestoned streets after the match.

Israeli media reported that victims were hiding in hotel rooms under guard after the “lynching”, while the country’s embassy in the US claimed “hundreds” had been “ambushed and attacked” as they walked back to their hotels from the stadium.

Sir Ephraim Mirvis, Britain’s Chief Rabbi, said the attacks should be a “watershed moment” for Europe.

“Utterly devastating scenes from the Netherlands,” he wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “Hateful mobs have chased down Jewish and Israeli football fans on the streets of Amsterdam after a match, violently beating them and proudly posting the footage on social media.

“This should be a watershed moment for Europe and for the world, when it realises how severe the scourge of anti-Jewish hatred has become. Sadly, I fear it will not be and that tragically, this will not be the last such attack, God forbid.”
