French police officers control vehicles coming across the border from Spain near Le Perthus, southern France, on August 18, 2017, following two quick-succession, separate attacks in Barcelona and another in the popular Spanish seaside city Cambrils, leaving 13 people dead and injuring more than 100 others. In the first incident, which was claimed by the Islamic State group, a white van sped into a street packed full of tourists in central Barcelona on August 17, knocking people out of the way and killing 13. The driver stepped out of the van and fled the scene. Some eight hours later in Cambrils, a city 120 kilometres south of Barcelona, an Audi A3 car rammed into pedestrians, injuring six civilians -- one of them critically -- and a police officer. / AFP PHOTO / RAYMOND ROIG
