Explosion Damages Jewish School in Amsterdam

HeadlineMar 16, 2026

In the Netherlands, authorities are denouncing what they described as antisemitic attacks on two Jewish institutions this weekend. The mayor of Amsterdam said an overnight blast Saturday damaged the outside of a Jewish school in a “targeted attack against the Jewish community.” The day before, four teenagers were taken into police custody, accused of starting a fire at a synagogue in Rotterdam. No one has been arrested for the attack in Amsterdam.
