Coordinated bombings target Jewish sites across Belgium and the Netherlands

Force in Play

Ordered expanded security at Jewish sites

Four attacks on Jewish buildings across three countries in six days. An explosion at a synagogue in Liege, Belgium on March 9 was followed by a strike in Greece, an arson bombing at a Rotterdam synagogue on March 13, and an overnight blast at Amsterdam's only Orthodox Jewish school on March 14. No one has been killed, but the tempo is accelerating: the Amsterdam and Rotterdam attacks came less than 24 hours apart.
