A bomb has exploded in a bar on the Spanish island of Majorca, officials say, BBC reported.

Spanish media reports say a telephone call warned of the bomb. It is not known if there are any casualties.

The blast happened in the island's capital city, Palma-de-Majorca, the Spanish news agency Efe reported.

On Sunday, the Basque separatist group Eta admitted responsibility for a bomb attack in Majorca last month which killed two Civil Guard officers.

Spanish National Radio said the bomb on Sunday exploded in the toilet of a bar called La Rigoletta, in el Paseo del Portitxol, in front of a beach called Playa de Can Tere Antoni, in Palma.

As a result of the warning the area had been evacuated, reports say.
