        Two Swedish teenagers were charged in a Danish court on Thursday with possessing five hand grenades and detonating two of them on a rooftop near Israel's embassy in Copenhagen, the prosecutor said in court.
        
        No one was injured in the two explosions early on Wednesday, but the building near the embassy sustained some damage, investigators said.
        
        The two teenagers, aged 16 and 19, were detained on Wednesday on a train at Copenhagen's main railway station, and were questioned on Thursday in a Copenhagen city court. The court banned publication of their names.
        
        A third man, aged 19, was detained elsewhere in the Danish capital and was released after questioning, Danish police said.
        
        The police said they were investigating whether the embassy was the target of the explosions.
