Two police officers were slightly wounded in a car bombing in Spain's northern Basque region on Friday, local media reported.
The bomb exploded outside a police station in the Basque city of Durango, shattering windows and damaging police cars parked outside.
The injured police officers were cut by flying glasses.
It seems to be the first attack by the Basque armed separatist group ETA since it called off a ceasefire with the Spanish government on June 5, according to an official at the Spanish Interior Minister office in the Basque regional capital Vitoria.
However, no one claimed responsibility for the bomb attack and the official, on condition of anonymity, said she did not know if there was any warning calls before the attack.
ETA has waged a campaign for an independent Basque state for over 40 years, killing hundreds of people. ETA was classified as a terrorist group by the United States and the European Union.
