Hajduk Split Fans Arrested for Nazi Chants Before Ajax Match
Croatian police arrested multiple members of the Torcida fan group after they chanted antisemitic and pro-Nazi slogans during a march in Split ahead of a UEFA Conference League match against Ajax. The incident, which included references to Adolf Hitler and the Ustasha regime, prompted strong condemnation from the Croatian government, President Zoran Milanovic, and the Israeli embassy. Hajduk Split won the match 2-1 but faced a 12-minute stoppage due to pyrotechnics and issued an official apology. Authorities are investigating the chants as hate speech, with further arrests expected.
