Two suspected members of the Basque separatist group, ETA, have been killed in an explosion in Spain.
The blast in the northern city of Bilbao appears to have been a bungled attack. Two bodies were found in the wreckage of an exploded car in the capital of the Basque region.
Co-operating Spanish and French police are investigating the possibility that the victims were about to plant a bomb.
Radio control equipment, false number plates and a pistol were found in the wreckage.
A Spanish government official said that the two suspects may have been planning an attack in revenge for recent arrests of alleged ETA members in France.
Five other ETA members have been killed in the last two years while transporting or handling explosives.
