Police arrested two men on Friday near Governor’s Beach, Cyprus, on suspicion of terrorism after a search of their residence turned up explosive materials believed to be components for a bomb. The discovery prompted immediate arrests and an ongoing police investigation into the potential threat.

Authorities identified the suspects as Palestinian and said they were detained at their home close to Governor’s Beach before being taken into custody for questioning. No other arrests have been reported in connection with the probe.

The two men were brought before a court on Friday, which issued eight-day remand orders while investigations continue. Authorities have not released further details about the origin of the materials, any intended targets or additional charges beyond the terrorism suspicion.
