Small bomb explodes on Spanish road

A small bomb exploded on a road in northern Spain today after the armed Basque separatist group ETA made a warning call about four bombs. No one was injured.

Also today, ETA’s banned political wing, Batasuna, called a general strike in the Basque region to protest against the death in prison of two ETA prisoners last week. Police say one hanged himself and the other had a heart attack.
