Seven Israeli football fans are reportedly still missing after a night of carnage in Amsterdam in which they were set upon by pro-Palestine youths.

It was initially announced Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would deploy an immediate rescue mission to the Netherlands after what was referred to “a very violent incident” targeting multiple Israeli citizens. However, the Prime Minister’s office later said Israeli citizens would be brought back home via civilian flights. 

The Israeli Shin Bet, or security agency, has confirmed it is increasing security at all embassies in the Netherlands and Israeli flights from the country.

Broadcaster N12 news said at least seven people remained missing, with 20 injured.

The UK’s Board of Deputies has condemned the incidents and called on the UK Government to ensure similar attacks do not occur in this country.
