Dissent in Amsterdam: Pro-Palestinian Demonstration Ends in Arrests Amid Extended Ban

During a pro-Palestinian demonstration at Amsterdam’s Dam, police arrested dozens of protesters despite a court-ordered ban. The emergency measure, originally set to expire Monday, has now been extended until Thursday following violent incidents related to a recent football match. Hundreds gathered at the Dam, disregarding the prohibition, leading police to disperse the crowd forcibly. Arrests included notable activist Frank van der Linde, who challenged the ban in court but was ultimately unsuccessful. Remaining detainees’ numbers are currently unconfirmed.
