Bomb explodes in Spain's Basque region

Police in Spain say a car bomb has exploded in Getxo, near Bilbao, in the Basque region.

There are no reports of any casualties.

The police had cordoned off the area after a warning was received in the name of the Basque separatist group, ETA.

The explosion comes a day after the Spanish government adopted a controversial draft law aimed at banning any political group judged to be supporting terrorism.
