Al Arabiya, 22 March 2016 – ISIS claimed it had been behind the deadly bombings that tore an airport terminal and a metro station in the Belgian capital Brussels on Tuesday, which left dozens killed and over 140 wounded.
The AMAQ news agency, which is close to ISIS, said that “fighters” from the group had carried out both attacks. Police have begun making raids across different parts of the country in an attempt to round up suspects.
On early Tuesday evening, police issued a wanted notice for a man suspected of involvement in the attacks.
Calling for information they issued a photograph of a man, dressed in white and wearing a hat, as he pushed a luggage trolley.
The twin bomb attacks on Brussels airport Tuesday may have been carried out by two suicide bombers and the police are “actively looking” for a third attacker, the federal prosecutor said.
“There is a photo of three men taken at Zaventem airport and it is possible that two of them carried out a suicide attack while the third is being actively sought,” federal prosecutor Frederic Van Leeuw said, after police issued a wanted notice for the man.
