Police in the Danish capital have said two pre-dawn explosions took place near the Israeli embassy in Copenhagen, prompting the nearby Jewish school to close for the day.

Police said no-one had been injured and they were investigating whether there was a link between the blasts and the Israeli diplomatic mission, which is close by several other embassies.
