Two explosions at the Brussels airport and another at a Brussels subway station have left at least 23 people dead, according to reports from Belgian media. The explosions have sent Belgium to maximum terror level while authorities work to figure out the responsible party or parties.
The first explosions were reported at the airport, which shut down all outgoing flights and forced airlines to redirect to other airports. The third explosion was reported about an hour later at the Brussels metro station in Molenbeek. Media has begun reporting that the subway bombing was a suicide attack.
The explosions could be related to the arrest and capture of the Islamic radical Salah Abdeslam, the man behind the Paris terror attacks, which occurred late last week in Belgium. Authorities there said Abdeslam was working on an attack in Brussels, but was injured in a fire fight with police and captured alive.
