Police did not say whether the bombing, some 30 meters (98 feet) from the Israeli embassy was connected to Israel’s war against Hamas, sparked by the terror group’s devastating onslaught on southern Israel on October 7.
A Nicosia court ordered that the suspects remain in police detention for six days until investigators can formally bring charges against them or release them.
According to police, two of the suspects were spotted walking near the scene of the explosion, while the other two were sitting inside a car parked in a nearby alley.
