An Amsterdam District Court has handed down sentences to five men involved in the violence that occurred during a UEFA Europa League football match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv in November. The riots resulted in 5 individuals being hospitalized and 20 others sustaining minor injuries, with over 60 people detained.
The court sentenced one man to 6 months in prison, another to 2 1/2 months, and two others to 1 month each. A fifth defendant received 100 hours of community service. The incidents involved clashes between pro-Palestinian demonstrators and Israeli soccer fans, with some actions being labeled as antisemitic.
