Dutch police arrested three people suspected of causing unrest in Amsterdam following last week’s clashes between Israeli fans and pro-Palestinian demonstrators ahead of a soccer match.

Police officers pursued groups of people who lobbed stones at them, the daily Het Parool reported late on Monday.

Several parked cars were damaged in the unrest, while some groups launched fireworks, erected barricades, and set fire to an empty tram in the city’s western part.

The three suspects were arrested in those areas, Het Parool reported.

A wave of violence erupted before and after Maccabi Tel Aviv's match against Ajax late last Thursday, causing widespread outrage, with reports of Israeli fans fighting bystanders, vandalizing property, and setting a Palestinian flag alight.

Videos shared widely on social media depict Maccabi fans not only vandalizing private property but also attacking a local taxi driver and even confronting law enforcement officials.

Amsterdam authorities imposed a three-day ban on demonstrations last Friday, with over 60 arrests made.
