Madrid/UNI/Sputnik: A blast occurred on Monday at a hotel in Barcelona, though the Catalonian police have ruled out a terrorist attack.

"A terrorist attack is ruled out and the main hypothesis is that it could be the use of fireworks in the street," the police tweeted.

No casualties or damage have been detected so far, they said, adding that the causes of the incident are being investigated.

The clients of the hotel have been evacuated, according to Spanish newspaper 20 Minutos.
