Police arrested four people at Sunday’s Rode Lijn demonstration in Amsterdam, where organisers said more than 200,000 people took part in a protest against the war in Gaza.
The arrests were for failing to show identification, disobeying an order or demand, obstructing an official duty and threatening a police officer, according to Dutch news agency ANP. Police said the protest otherwise passed off calmly and under control.
Demonstrators walked from Museumplein around Vondelpark before returning to the square during the afternoon. Many wore red and carried Palestinian flags and placards. A large banner at the front of the march read “No money for genocide”. Shortly before 5pm, a group arrived with a banner bearing more than 21,600 names of Palestinian children reported killed by Israeli violence in Gaza since 7 October 2023.
