An Islamist organization has claimed responsibility for the attack on a Jewish school in Amsterdam. The Ashab Al Yamim organization released a video purportedly showing the detonation of the explosive device.

The mayor of the city, Femke Halsema, described the attack as deliberate and targeted against the Jewish community. The incident follows a similar attack outside a synagogue in Rotterdam.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry denounced a "wave of anti-Semitism" in the Netherlands, stressing the need for more action against anti-Semitism.

The explosion caused minor material damage to the school. There were no injuries.
