Terror Attack in Barcelona (Spain)

[Tender Branson]

A bus has hit people in Barcelona today, with several injured.

Then some men opened fire at a restaurant. 2 dead.

It's unclear if the men in the restaurant are the drivers of the bus, or other attackers.

The death toll has been updated to 10 (El Pais) or 13 (local Catalonia TV stations).

The El Mundo video of the pedestrian zone is pretty ugly (I'd advise you not to watch it).

Interesting timing with that independence referendum on October 1st.

That's probably the last thing Muslim terrorists have in mind during such an attack ...

They mostly do it because the IS caliphate is on the verge of final destruction, so they carry out attacks "at home" (which is where they do not belong in the first place).
