Israel concerned about paucity of arrests after Amsterdam attacks

Newly appointed Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar tells reporters in Jerusalem that Israel deemed the number of arrests over the apparently premeditated attacks on Israeli soccer fans by Muslim groups in Amsterdam last week “very low.”

“I was informed by the mayor of Amsterdam that they formed a special inquiry team, but I can tell that until now, the number of arrests is very low,” Saar says, adding that Israel offered its help in the investigation into the rampages in Amsterdam on Friday following a match between an Israeli team and a Dutch one.

Over the weekend, Amsterdam police said that only four of the more than 60 people detained remain in custody.

At least 10 Israelis were wounded.
