🚨 In a swift response to a sudden crisis, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the immediate dispatch of two rescue planes to Amsterdam after reports of a \"very violent incident\" targeting Israeli citizens.
Israeli nationals in the city were advised by the National Security Ministry to stay indoors and remain in their hotel rooms. Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir took to X (formerly known as Twitter), stating, \"Fans who went to see a football game encountered anti-Semitism and were attacked with unimaginable cruelty just because of their Jewishness and Israeliness.\"
While details remain scarce about the exact nature of the attacks, the urgency is palpable. Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has reached out to Dutch authorities, requesting assistance to ensure the safe passage of Israeli citizens to the airport. He discussed the situation with his Dutch counterpart, Caspar Veldkamp, emphasizing the need for swift action.
This unfolding situation has left many shaken, highlighting concerns over safety and rising tensions. Israeli officials are working closely with international partners to secure their citizens and bring them home safely. ✈️🇮🇱
