Majorca bomb attack kills two

A bomb attack near a police station on the Spanish island of Majorca killed two officers and injured several people today.

The attack came a day after a car-bomb blamed on Basque separatists ETA left scores injured in northern Spain.

The Civil Guard said the bomb was planted in the Palmanova beach resort area, south-west of the holiday island’s capital of Palma.

Yesterday’s blast injured around 60 people at a police barracks in the northern city of Burgos.

ETA has killed more than 825 people since it launched a campaign in 1968 for an independent homeland in Basque region of northern Spain.
