The IDF has now banned all those who serve in the IDF from travelling to Holland "until further notice," according to an official statement released today (Friday).

The statement comes in the wake of a wave of violence against Israeli Jews following a soccer match in Amsterdam. At least ten are wounded and three missing.

The government also rescinded its decision to send an IDF delegation to Amsterdam.

The government has advised those Israelis who haven't evacuated to remain in their hotels and avoid displaying visibly Jewish signs in the streets or in public places.

Meantime, El Al is continuing to help evacuate Israeli Jews with cost-free flights out of Amsterdam to Israel.
