The jihadis were wearing suicide vests – are authorities still unclear as to motive?
Residents of the Spanish seaside resort of Cambrils fled in terror in the early hours of Friday after five terrorists wearing suicide vests launched the second ramming attack in the country in a matter of hours. (Telegraph)
Spanish police say they have killed five people in the town of Cambrils to stop a second attempted van attack after an earlier one in Barcelona.
The attackers were wearing explosive belts, police said.
August 17, 2017: BBC:
Thirteen people died and dozens were injured when a van ploughed into crowds in Barcelona’s Las Ramblas area on Thursday afternoon. The driver of the van fled and is still at large.
Spain’s Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said it was a “jihadist attack”.
The authorities are now linking the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils with an explosion at a house on Wednesday evening in the town of Alcanar that left one person dead.
Earlier, police chief Josep Lluis Trapero said it appeared the residents at the Alcanar house had been “preparing an explosive device”. In Cambrils seven people including a police officer were wounded when a car was driven into a group early on Friday, Catalan emergency services said. One is in critical condition.
Spanish media reported that the attackers’ vehicle overturned and when the men got out they were quickly fired upon by police.
A series of controlled explosions was then carried out.
Police say the situation in Cambrils – a popular seaside resort to the south-west of Barcelona – is now under control.
Meanwhile police are continuing to search for the driver of the van used in the Barcelona attack, who fled on foot.
Two people have been arrested, but police say neither was the driver.

[They keep trying to equate Islam to Christianity saying it’s one of the worlds great religions. They keep trying to insist that we all worship the same God.]
It’s official doctrine of one church. But people pretend it ain’t there. Small wonder the error continues to grow.
[so black]
Oh my. He really DID say that. He’s Mr. Drama.
Seems like Wolf skipped the light fandango, turned cartwheels ‘cross the floor.
[[It’s official doctrine of one church. But people pretend it ain’t there. Small wonder the error continues to grow.]]
Exactly . It is no accident either that the one who they point out as not being saved are fundamental bible believing Christians.
Look at how the pope himself embraces Islam and rails against fundamental Christians .
Those muslim he is embracing and encouraging to come into Europe are going to be his and the apostate Roman Catholic church downfall.
Somebody on one of the threads mentioned the muslims in Germany.
I meant to say the terrorists who brought down the Seven Seas Clipper 747, the Pan Am Lockerbie Bombing as it is often known, were operating in Germany. The German police were after them but never really got it done in time.
I remember when he said that!! “They are so very poor, and so very black!”
That was when I decided Wolf probably can’t handle life outside of an institution. I’m hoping CNN has paid for round the clock caregivers for him.
Western Europe reaping the rewards of immigration and their stupid tolerance. Hope they choke on it!
Europe needs about 100 million women like this brave Polish Patriot!

Actually it was a woman cop that killed 4 out of the 5 jihadists.
Good for her!
Allegedly, a woman cop killed ALL FOUR OF THEM.
