Over 200 Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters, many reportedly linked to the Israel Defence Forces (IDF), took to the streets of Amsterdam on Wednesday and Thursday. Demonstrators were filmed tearing down Palestinian flags and chanting aggressive anti-Arab slogans, including, „Let IDF win to F*#k Arabs” and „There are no schools in Gaza because there are no children left.“

Videos of these chants and confrontations quickly spread across social media, amplifying tensions between pro-Palestinian groups and the visiting fans.
