Spanish police have released a video showing an explosive device found underwater which forced the evacuation of a beach in Barcelona yesterday.
The device possibly dates back 80 years to the Spanish Civil War, the Civil Guard said.
Police established a security perimeter of 250 meters around the device off the Sant Sebastia beach, one of Barcelona's most popular beaches.
Navy specialists are due to deactivate the device today. Officials said the closure of the area would remain in place until it is made safe.
The device, located at a depth of three metres, 25 metres from the shore, was found by an off-duty police diver who happened to be swimming in the area.
