Two soldiers remain in garda custody this morning in connection with the discovery of a pipe bomb in Co Donegal.

The man and woman were arrested yesterday under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act.

It follows the discovery of a pipe bomb at a premises in Burnfoot.

Gardaí are investigating if the discovery is linked to an ongoing row between two groups within the Defence Forces.
