Two armed Palestinians were arrested by soldiers after they infiltrated into Israel from the northern Gaza Strip on Thursday.

The two men threw a grenade that did not explode toward troops who arrived at the scene after the suspects crossed the fence from the Hamas-run coastal enclave.

The soldiers who arrived at the scene responded by firing and arresting the two suspects, who were armed with a knife, wire cutter and another inactive grenade. There were no casualties.

The infiltration took place several hours after an unarmed Palestinian infiltrated into Israel and was detained by soldiers.
