Amsterdam, May 9 (RHC)-- Dutch riot police have arrested 32 anti-war protesters after moving in to remove barricades set up at the University of Amsterdam (UVA), where there have been clashes between demonstrators and police since Monday.

Officers cleared protesters out of an area in front of the UVA’s Binnengasthuis building in Amsterdam’s city centre, while demonstrators also blocked a major road and “threw ammonia at riot police,” according to reports.

Police said the protesters, who are calling for the UVA to sever all ties with Israel, had been arrested for “violence, destruction, assault and incitement.”

These latest detentions mean that at least 169 people have been arrested by Dutch police since Monday.
