Belgian authorities raised the terror alert to its highest level in the capital after the fatal shooting of two Swedish people in the Belgian capital which Prime Minister Alexander De Croo suggested was linked to terrorism.
The OCAD anti-terror centre also said the terror alert for the rest of the country had been raised to its second-highest level.
