At least 10 reportedly killed in blasts at Schuman, Maalbeek metro stations near EU offices
A blast at the Maalbeek metro station in Brussels has killed at least 10 people according to local police, as cited by TASS. The explosion took place less than an hour after a deadly airport bombing, which killed at least 17 people.
Large amounts of smoke have been seen coming out of the metro station in the Belgian capital. Brussels’ transport authority says all metro stations in the city have been closed, Reuters reports.
An AP reporter said he say a number of people with facial injuries following the explosion at the Maalbeek metro station. Alexandre Brans, who was wiping blood from his face, said that he saw at least two people being carried away on stretchers.
"The metro was leaving Maelbeek station when there was a really loud explosion. It was panic everywhere. There were a lot of people in the metro," he said.
