Small bomb ‘goes off’ at Spain’s airport
MADRID, June 30: A small bomb exploded at Spain’s Ibiza airport on Saturday, after it had been evacuated, the website of newspaper El Pais reported.
The airport had been cleared after a telephoned bomb warning in the name of the Basque separatist movement ETA.
Ibiza airport was evacuated on Saturday, after a bomb warning upset the start of the peak holiday season on the Mediterranean island, Spanish police said.
Local media said the Interior Ministry had stepped in to deny earlier reports of a controlled explosion at the airport. Ibiza has long been a magnet for thousands of British and German holidaymakers.—Reuters
