(21 Jun 2017) A Belgian government official said security will remain high on Wednesday at Brussels rail facilities after a man blew up an explosive device at the city's Central Station.
The man was shot by soldiers after detonating a small device there late on Tuesday. He lay still for several hours while a bomb squad checked whether he was carrying more explosives and later died. No one else was hurt.
Central Station re-opened at 0800 (0600 GMT) on Wednesday.
A police command car and several officers were still at the station.
Burn and blood marks remained on the floor at the scene, as workers continued to clean up and paint the area.
Belgium has been on high alert since suicide bombers killed 32 people at the Brussels airport and a subway station on March 22, 2016.
Federal prosecutors, who visited the Central Station overnight, were due to hold a press conference at 0900 GMT.
