One suspect was arrested by local police after they attempted to break into and tried to set fire to the lobby of the Israeli embassy in The Hague on Friday night, Israeli media reported.

No embassy employees were harmed in the incidents, according to reports.

This incident comes only two months after three anti-Israel activists were arrested for vandalizing the Israeli Embassy in The Hague.
