The United States Mission to the Netherlands continues to monitor ongoing protests and incidents of violence in the city of Amsterdam, following the November 7 attacks against Israeli football supporters and others. Authorities have announced an emergency order designating Amsterdam as a high-risk security area and banning demonstrations. Despite the current ban on demonstrations, unauthorized protests have occurred throughout the city and have resulted in injuries, arrests, and vandalism, including a tram set on fire.

According to news reports, there are continued calls on social media for protests and disruption to public order. All U.S. citizens are advised to exercise caution, avoid protests or large gatherings that may be encountered, and be mindful that gatherings have the potential to escalate quickly and become violent.
