One of the alleged Barcelona assailants has admitted in court that a bigger attack was planned, say judicial sources.

Mohamed Houli Chemlal was testifying in the Madrid high court, where the four surviving suspects are appearing.

He was injured in an explosion that reduced a house to rubble in the town of Alcanar last Wednesday.

Fifteen people were killed and more than 100 injured in a series of attacks in and around Barcelona.

Eight members of the alleged cell are dead - two were killed in the Alcanar explosion, and six were later shot by police.

The last suspect was killed in a vineyard west of Barcelona on Monday.
