By Hamodia Staff

Authorities in the Netherlands reported that an incendiary object was hurled at the Israeli Embassy in The Hague on Thursday morning, leading to the arrest of a suspect.

No injuries were reported during the incident, which is currently under investigation, according to a statement by the Dutch police on social media. Further details about the incident were not disclosed.

Following the incident, additional security measures were implemented at the Israeli Embassy in The Hague due to previous threats.

Israeli Ambassador Modi Ephraim addressed the incident on social media, stating, “This morning a burning object was thrown towards the Embassy of Israel in The Hague. The police have arrested a suspect. It is unacceptable that such an attack can take place in the Netherlands. Fortunately, there were no injuries. We trust that the authorities take all possible measures to prevent such attacks. This proves the dangerous consequences of the concerning trend of increasing hatred and incitement. This hatred cannot be tolerated.”

Earlier this year, Swedish authorities discovered an object believed to be an explosive device outside the Israeli Embassy in Sweden, prompting an investigation into a suspected terrorist crime.
