An explosion has damaged a Jewish school in the Dutch capital Amsterdam, in what the city mayor condemned as a "deliberate attack against the Jewish community".
Mayor Femke Halsema said the overnight blast caused limited damage to the outer wall of the school in the Buitenveldert district. No injuries were reported.
"This is a cowardly act of aggression towards the Jewish community," Halsema said, stressing that Amsterdam "must be a place where Jews can live safely".
Security had already been beefed up at Jewish public institutions, following a suspected arson attack on a synagogue in the port city of Rotterdam on Friday.
Dutch firefigthers and police were quickly deployed to the scene after the explosion, local media reported.
