The PSNI is carrying out a search at a property in south Armagh after a man was arrested following the discovery of a number of bombs in the Republic of Ireland.
The Army is supporting the PSNI search at Tassagh Road, Keady.
The PSNI confirmed their search was linked to an ongoing investigation by An Garda Síochána.
It’s understood detectives are also exploring a possible link to a hoax device discovered in Milford, Co Armagh on July 1.
Gardai said the arrest came as part of the investigation into the discovery of a number of attempted improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in the north-east and south-west of the Republic.
The man, aged in his 40s was arrested during an operation in Co Monaghan on Sunday evening.
The man remained detained under Section 30 of the Offences Against the State Act at a Garda Station in the north-western region.
Detention under section 30 can initially last up to 24 hours excluding breaks and can be extended for a further two days under approval by a superintendent or the courts.
An Garda Siochana said it was liaising with the PSNI in relation to the probe.
