Spanish police arrest eight tied to Basque separatists
In a pre-dawn operation across several cities, 270 officers detained eight people linked to ETA actions and its international network. Authorities say the arrests target fund-raising and diplomacy support, with some detainees from Herri Batasuna. The case follows a car bomb in Madrid and mass peace protests.
