Plaswijckpark in Rotterdam has been set on fire by protesters of a pandemic nighttime curfew that was recently declared. The amusement park includes a zoo with "monkeys and wallabies." Not clear if the fire is near the zoo area, but keep your fingers crossed for the animals.
Update: The fire was in structures that are not near the zoo and thankfully the animals are safe. The gross selfishness of anti-lockdown protests and riots have given us a disturbing view into the dark heart of the human soul this year.
Here's a great thread expaining what has been happening in The Netherlands the last few days. Looks like it's gone well beyond a lockdown riot and is just a youth melee at this point. https://twitter.com/fakeminusone/status/1354530121101828099?s=19
