In Amsterdam, sentences have been handed down in the case concerning attacks on Israelis.

A 32-year-old defendant received a six-month sentence after allegedly kicking a fan using a karate move, according to the investigation. As a result, the victim narrowly avoided being hit by a tram, reported the newspaper Het Parool from the courtroom. The prosecution previously sought a two-year prison sentence for him. The investigation noted that this defendant played a key role in the attacks on November 7 and 8. It was highlighted that video footage presented to the court shows this individual kicking and hitting his victims.

In total, three defendants received sentences for violence and bodily harm. Two individuals were convicted for exchanging messages on social media calling for attacks on "Maccabi" fans. The sentences can be appealed within two weeks.

The local Center for Information and Documentation on Israel (CIDI) described the sentences as too lenient, considering the allegedly anti-Semitic nature of the events. The organization's director, Naomi Mestrum, stated that the fact that the sentences were milder than what the prosecution demanded is a "disappointing signal."

On the evening of November 7, masked individuals attacked Israeli fans after a football match between Tel Aviv's "Maccabi" and the Dutch "Ajax." Some of the attackers carried Palestinian flags and shouted pro-Palestinian slogans. The assailants also attempted to storm the hotels where Israelis were staying.

The events provoked a strong international reaction. Approximately 60 victims are insisting on compensation.

Meanwhile, according to the Amsterdam police, "Maccabi" fans also caused disturbances by tearing down Palestinian flags displayed on buildings and chanting anti-Arab slogans.

Currently, Dutch courts are handling cases against another 40 defendants, including citizens of Israel.
