Two bombs have just gone off in Spain.

"Two car bombs have exploded in the southern Spanish resorts of Marbella and Fuengirola, injuring at least six people including three Britons.
A British man is critically ill in hospital after the car bomb in Fuengirola, which also slightly injured two British children, a Moroccan and a Spanish couple.



Shortly after that blast a second car bomb exploded on a central boulevard in Marbella, just 27 kilometres (17 miles) down the coast from Fuengirola. No-one is thought to have been hurt.

The bombs - blamed on the Basque separatist group ETA - coincided with the start of a two-day summit of European Union leaders in Seville, about 160 kilometres (100 miles) north-west of Fuengirola.

According to Spanish national radio, a 35-year old Briton hit by shrapnel in the Fuengirola blast is undergoing urgent surgery in hospital. "
