A short time ago, the Terrorism section of the FCO's travel guidance for the Netherlands was updated to reflect new information and advice on an increased threat from terrorism in the Netherlands.
"Terrorists are likely to try to carry out attacks in the Netherlands. Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places frequented by expatriates and foreign travellers. You should be vigilant and follow the advice of local authorities. On 31 August 2018, two foreign tourists were seriously injured in a knife attack at Amsterdam Central Station." "There’s a heightened threat of terrorist attack globally against UK interests and British nationals from groups or individuals motivated by the conflict in Iraq and Syria. You should be vigilant at this time."
