| Barcelona attack key suspect Moussa Oukabir confirmed dead | |
| (35 minutes later) | |
| The key suspect in Thursday's Barcelona attack, Moussa Oukabir, has been named as one of five men killed by police in the other attack site, Cambrils. | |
| Police had earlier said they were searching for Oukabir and three other men, but only one remains unaccounted for. Four suspects have been arrested. | |
| Thirteen people were killed when a van, said to be rented by Oukabir, rammed crowds in Barcelona's Ramblas district. | |
| Police say the suspects had been planning more sophisticated attacks. | |
| They said blasts on Wednesday in Alcanar, a town south of Barcelona, deprived plotters of bomb material so they carried out simpler attacks using vehicles. | |
| Moussa Oukabir, thought to be 17, is a Spanish citizen from the northern Catalan city of Girona. Most of the other suspects were Moroccan. | |
| He is suspected of using his brother's documents to rent the van used in the Barcelona attack. | |
| Later the same night police shot dead five attackers including Oukabir in the nearby town of Cambrils after they drove a car into pedestrians killing one woman and injuring six others. |
