Pro-Palestinian protesters again defy Amsterdam ban

Pro-Palestinian protesters rally in central Amsterdam, defying a ban imposed after violence stemming from a football match between Ajax and Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Dozens of demonstrators, some with Palestinian flags, chant “Amsterdam is saying no to genocide” and “Free Palestine.”

Police with expanded stop-and-search powers in the Dutch capital have detained or removed hundreds of demonstrators since last week’s clashes under emergency measures imposed until Thursday.
