Bombing in Spain

Today, there was a car bombing in Pamplona at the University of Navarra, which is in the north of Spain, in the province of Navarra. 17 people were injured. ETA, the Basque separatist terrorist group is believed to be behind it. I'm ok, and everyone I know is ok. The official people who have contacted me, like the Embassy in Madrid, are not too concerned about any other ETA attacks outside of the northeastern corner of Spain in the near future, and ETA has historically not targeted tourists or foreigners, and they tend to attack government or official targets. Even so, terrorist attacks are never a good thing, especially at a university.
Happy Halloween.
