More than 100 pro-Palestinian protesters have been taken away by police during a banned demonstration in Amsterdam after 'antisemitic' violence took place following a football game this week. A three-day ban on demonstrations was brought in on Friday, following violence that erupted on Thursday after a Europa League game between Israeli team Maccabi Tel Aviv and local side Ajax. The aftermath of the football game was marred by violence that the mayor of the Dutch city and the country's prime minister described as antisemitic. Tensions began to build the day before the match when some of the 3,000 visiting Maccabi supporters had minor altercations with locals, including taxi drivers and Ajax supporters, police said.
