Eta gun and bomb cache is seized

More than a ton of explosives and 30 firearms have been seized so far this year from caches believed to have been hidden by the Basque separatist group Eta, Spanish and French police reported yesterday.

In cross-border operations, 62 suspected Eta members were captured, and dynamite, more than 100 timers and 10 completed car bombs were seized. The bombs were of the type that killed three police officers and wound 60 people in July.
