Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has slammed Amsterdam’s Mayor Femke Halsema after she told a panel that she regrets using the word “pogrom” when referring to recent between Israeli football fans and pro-Palestinian protesters in the Dutch capital city, reports. On X, Saar that Halsema’s statement was “outrageous and unacceptable”, adding that Israelis who were watching the football match in question were “chased and brutally attacked by a violent mob”. “The most appropriate word for what happened is therefore: pogrom. Contrary to what the mayor said, the use of the word ‘pogrom’ regarding the events of that night does not amount to ‘Israeli propaganda’,” Sa’ar said.
