The Israeli prime minister was informed early today of a “very violent” and “horrific” incident targeting Israeli citizens in Amsterdam, as announced by Netanyahu’s office.

The clashes caused chaos while the Israeli government reports at least 10 injured and 2 missing. However, other information speaks of 100 injured.
