The Netherlands had added extra security at the Israeli Embassy in The Hague following threats.
"This morning a burning object was thrown towards the Embassy of Israel in The Hague," the Israeli ambassador Modi Ephraim tweeted. "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."
