We report the detection of the soft X-Ray transient XTE J1720-318 (ATEL #113, ATEL #115) with the IBIS/ISGRI instrument onboard the INTEGRAL observatory during routine scans of the Galactic Center region and two pointed observations of the source IGRJ1746-3213(=H1743-322), all performed in April. The source started to be active at energies higher than 40 keV around March 30, reached a level of ~25 mCrabs and ~30 mCrabs in the 15-40 and 40-100 keV bands, respectively, on April 6 and 7, and was then detected at approximately the same level between April 15 and 16.
