An explosion at a Jewish school in Amsterdam early Saturday morning caused light damage to the building in what city officials are calling a deliberate attack. No injuries were reported in the incident.

Amsterdam Mayor Femke Halsema said police have obtained CCTV footage showing a person placing an explosive device against the exterior wall of the school. The mayor characterized the incident as "a deliberate attack against the Jewish community."

The explosion occurred amid heightened security measures at Jewish public institutions in the Netherlands. Security had been increased following an earlier incident in Rotterdam, though details of that previous incident were not specified.

Police are investigating the attack and reviewing the surveillance footage to identify the perpetrator. The incident adds to concerns about the safety of Jewish institutions in Europe.

The school sustained only minor structural damage from the explosion. Authorities have not released information about potential suspects or motives beyond the mayor's assessment that it was a targeted attack on the Jewish community.
