No Irish hurt in Spanish blasts

Reports today allayed fears any Irish people could have been hurt in a bomb attack in Northern Spain today.

The attacks took place just 75 miles from La Coruna, where hundreds of Irish fans have gathered ahead of next week's match between Shelbourne and Deportivo. However it is believed no Irish tourists were in the danger zone at the time.

Four people were slightly injured after the double bombing in Northwest Spain. It is thought the bombing was the work of Basque separatist group ETA.
