ISIS Kills at Least 34 In Brussels Series Of Attacks

At least 34 people are dead after an ISIS suicide bomb attack at Brussels Airport today.

A series of apocalyptic style bomb blasts injured 170 across the city including a United Airlines airport terminal and a Metro station, located just over 400 yards from the EU headquarters.

Witnesses described apocalyptic scenes with blood and ‘dismembered bodies everywhere’ after two blasts rocked the terminal at around 8am (7am GMT), killing at least 14 people and injuring dozens of others. Then 79 minutes later at 9.19am, at least 20 people were killed and scores injured, some critically, when a blast hit a Metro station just 400 metres from the EU headquarters in the city centre. At the airport, there were reports of a firefight between police and the attackers who shouted in Arabic moments before detonating their bombs, one of which was understood to contain nails. An unexploded suicide vest was later found in the rubble and a Kalashnikov rifle beside the body of a dead terrorist. ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attacks. The blasts, which detonated near a Starbucks and several check-in desks, sent shockwaves through the terminal building, shattering windows and knocking roof tiles off the ceiling as terrified passengers ran for their lives. h/t dailymail

The blasts came months after attacks in Paris and the mass shooting San Bernardino California, also carried out by terror group, ISIS.
