An explosion has damaged a Jewish school in Amsterdam. Mayor Femke Halsema condemned the overnight blast as a "deliberate attack against the Jewish community." The explosion caused limited damage to the school's outer wall in the Buitenveldert district, with no injuries reported.
Mayor Halsema stated, "This is a cowardly act of aggression towards the Jewish community," emphasizing that Amsterdam must be a safe place for Jewish residents. Security measures were already heightened at Jewish institutions following a suspected arson at a Rotterdam synagogue. Police are reviewing CCTV footage for clues. The investigation is ongoing, with no public comment yet on possible motives.
