Brussels - Two explosions ripped through Brussels airport Tuesday during the morning rush hour as hundreds of passengers were trying to check in.
Airport authorities said the explosions caused several injuries.
airport spokeswoman Anke Fransen said: “There were two blasts in the departure hall. First aid team are in place for help.”
Passengers were led onto the tarmac and the crisis centre urged people not to come to the airport.
