Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said the fight against terrorism is a "global battle" and Europe's main problem after two attacks in Catalonia that killed 14 people, the Daily Mail reported Friday.

Rajoy also thanked the emergency services for their work and messages of support from around the world after the van attack in Barcelona killed 13 people, and subsequent violence in the seaside resort of Cambrils that killed one woman.

Rajoy was speaking at a joint news conference in Barcelona with Catalan regional president Carles Puigdemont.

A police official said that authorities have not identified the driver of the van that killed at least 13 people in Barcelona.
