A man was stabbed overnight at an asylum seeker reception center located on Kabelweg in Amsterdam's Westelijk Havengebied. Emergency services were alerted around 1:00 AM, and an ambulance transported the victim to the hospital. Following the incident, police apprehended a suspect. This stabbing occurs a few weeks after a similar incident at another reception facility managed by the Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA). The Kabelweg reception center, which opened in April 2025 and has a capacity for 600 asylum seekers, was the site of this latest violence, as detailed in a letter from responsible alderman Alexander Scholtes to the council.
