An investigation is underway after a video emerged showing Israeli soldiers throwing a stun grenade at Palestinians sitting in a coffee shop.

The Ramallah News site published the footage yesterday. In it an Israeli army Jeep can be seen driving up to the four Palestinians before stopping then driving away. A grenade is then thrown from the back of the vehicle.

The Palestinians disperse and an explosion is seen.

The footage shows the use of the stun grenade is unwarranted.
