Spanish police on Friday arrested 10 people in Guipuzcoa, Basque region, with suspected involvement in street terrorism related to the Basque separatist group ETA, the Interior Ministry said.
The ministry said the arrests were made in cities of Renteria, Oiartzun and Mondragon.
The police also searched 18 houses and premises allegedly used by the group linked to ETA to hide assets and hold meetings.
The 10 are accused of throwing Molotov cocktails at a police station, setting fires and carrying out other attacks in the Basque region since 2005, according to the Interior Ministry.
This is the police's seventh operation against street terrorism in the Basque region since July, 2007, and it was carried out just a day after a bombing blamed on ETA injured seven policemen in Bilbao, north of Spain. Source:Xinhua
