“Eta blamed for Spanish car bomb”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “A car bomb has exploded in the city of Durango in Spain’s Basque country, lightly wounding two policemen.

No-one has admitted carrying out the attack, but officials have blamed the Basque separatist group Eta which called off a ceasefire in June.

The bomb exploded in a car parked outside a police barracks in Durango, about 40km (25 miles) south of Bilbao, at 0330 (0130 GMT).

A second car bomb exploded in nearby Amorebieta about one hour later.

Police said the second car was used by the bombers to flee the scene of the first bombing.

There were no injuries or damage reported from the second bomb but the Durango explosion caused considerable damage to the police barracks.

Two policemen were injured by flying glass.”
