[Photo\/Agencies] <\/p>\n<p>THE HAGUE &#8211; An explosion occurred overnight from Friday to Saturday at a Jewish school in Amsterdam, causing limited damage but no injuries, local media reported.<\/p>\n<p>Dutch news agency ANP reported that the incident is being treated as a targeted attack against the Jewish community. Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema condemned the act, calling it a &#8220;cowardly act of aggression,&#8221; and emphasized that authorities are treating it with the utmost seriousness.<\/p>\n<p>Halsema added that the Jewish community in Amsterdam is increasingly facing antisemitism, which she described as unacceptable. &#8220;A school must be a place where children can learn in safety. Amsterdam must be a city where Jews can live without fear,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities confirmed that video footage exists showing the placement and detonation of the explosive device. Investigators are currently examining the recordings as part of the ongoing inquiry.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, four teenagers were arrested in Rotterdam on Friday in connection with an arson attack at a synagogue.
