ETA Set Booby Trap for Civil Guard

A small bomb, apparently planted by Basque terrorist group ETA, exploded on 11 April near a group of telecommunications transmitters in Navarre.  The bomb was intended as a booby trap for Civil Guard officers, according to authorities.

The device contained about 5kg of home made explosive and was packed with shrapnel.  It was placed at head height on top of a small building inside the complex near the town of Lapoblacion.  There was a second unexploded device nearby.
