Overview

• The demonstration at Malieveld was organized by right-wing activist Els Rechts and drew thousands, according to local media and officials.
• Police intervened after a breakaway group blocked a highway and threw bottles and stones, deploying tear gas and a water cannon to disperse crowds.
• At least one police car was set ablaze and windows were smashed at the D66 party headquarters, which leader Rob Jetten condemned on X.
• Geert Wilders declined an invitation to speak and later denounced the violence, joined by Justice Minister Foort van Oosten and opposition figure Frans Timmermans in criticizing the unrest.
• Authorities have not yet confirmed injuries or arrests, and a smaller group moved toward the fenced-off parliament complex during the clashes.
