“We failed Dutch Jewry during the Holocaust, and tonight we failed you again,” the King of the Netherlands told Israeli President Herzog on Friday.

The two spoke after violent pogroms against Israeli soccer fans took place in Amsterdam, leaving several injured and three missing.

King Willem-Alexander reportedly expressed his disgust and shock at the attacks in his country and promised Herzog that the Dutch government would do everything in its power to protect Israeli visitors and ensure their safe return to Israel.
