Holanda se prepara para cerimônia sobre Segunda Guerra em meio a preocupações de segurança por Gaza

AMSTERDÃ (Reuters) – A Holanda está se preparando para sua cerimônia anual para lembrar a Segunda Guerra Mundial em Amsterdã neste sábado, com acesso restrito do público e segurança reforçada por causa da guerra em Gaza.

A cidade de Amsterdã anunciou mais cedo nesta semana que restringiria severamente a participação na cerimônia na praça Dam, no centro da cidade. As medidas de segurança sem precedentes têm o objetivo de manter a cerimônia segura e conter possíveis distúrbios relacionados à guerra em Gaza, afirmou a prefeitura.

Autoridades holandesas afirmaram que a guerra entre Israel e Hamas e o aumento da insegurança no Oriente Médio elevaram os riscos de protestos e distúrbios.

Centenas de milhares se reúnem na praça Dam e em outros lugares ao redor da Holanda em 4 de maio todos os anos para realizar dois minutos de silêncio às 20h, horário local, para lembrar as vítimas da Segunda Guerra.

Neste ano, apenas 10.000 pessoas, que precisaram se registrar para conseguir um ingresso, poderão comparecer à cerimônia nacional em Amsterdã e os visitantes serão revistados.

Normalmente, cerca de 20.000 pessoas participam das comemorações na praça Dam, sem precisarem se registrar.

Na abertura de um Museu do Holocausto em março em Amsterdã, manifestantes pró-palestinos contrários à campanha militar de Israel em Gaza acenderam fogos de artifício e vaiaram o presidente israelense, Isaac Herzog, no momento em que ele chegava ao museu.
