Israel says antisemitism raging in Netherlands after Jewish school blast

Israel’s Foreign Ministry said on Saturday (March 14, 2026) that “an antisemitism epidemic is raging” in the Netherlands, after an overnight blast outside a Jewish school in Amsterdam.

“Where will the next attack be? The Dutch Government needs to do much more to fight antisemitism,” the Ministry said, in a social media post.

An overnight explosion against an exterior wall of a Jewish school in Amsterdam caused no injuries, and authorities have opened an investigation into the incident.

The incident comes after night-time attacks this week in front of synagogues in the Belgian city of Liege and the Dutch port city of Rotterdam.

The series of attacks comes after the February 28 launch of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, a conflict that has since broadened across the Middle East.
