FOOTAGE shared on social media has shown how Sky News edited footage on violence in Amsterdam on Thursday night.

We previously told how the broadcaster deleted a tweet about football fans from Israel chanting racist slurs before being attacked in the city following a Europa League match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax.

It has been reported that before the game, hundreds of Israeli supporters held a “vocal rally” in the main square of Amsterdam where they were seen tearing down Palestinian flags.

Sky News had shared a tweet to an article about the violence which highlighted the behaviour of Maccabi Tel Aviv’s fans.

The deleted tweet said: “Maccabi Tel Aviv fans tore down Palestinian flags and chanted racist anti-Arab slogans.”

One account shared the differences between the two videos with the first more explicitly calling out the behaviour of Maccabi Tel Aviv fans.

The reporter can be heard saying: “Maccabi fans were seen attacking locals as a police car can be seen driving by.”

However, a re-edited video did not make direct reference to fans of any one club with the reporter instead saying: “A video, posted on social media, shows a large group of hooded men dressed in black running down the street and striking people at random.”

Underneath the re-edited video, Sky News said: “This is a re-edit of a previous video which didn’t meet Sky News’ standards for balance and impartiality.”

Amsterdam councillor Jazie Veldhuyzen had previously said: “They (Israeli fans) began attacking houses of people in Amsterdam with Palestinian flags, so that’s actually where the violence started.”

Videos had also shown Israeli fans shouting anti-Arab slurs, with lines reportedly including “no schools in Gaza because there are no children left” and “let the IDF win to f*** the Arabs”.

Dutch police confirmed that 57 people had been arrested as a result of the disorder.

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was sending “rescue planes” for the Israeli fans.
