I have a nephew and his family living in Brussels. They intend returning home for Easter. Hope they are not in any danger. All the security measures in Brussels since the Paris attack, has been awful for them - and now this!

Thank you, toetapping. I must admit , I wouldn't fancy traveling by air to these parts of Europe.

Suspect in Brussels Terror Attack Arrested

The third man seen in airport surveillance video has been arrested in connection to Tuesday’s terror attacks in Brussels, according to European sources.

He was spotted in surveillance video at the Brussels Airport and believed to have been involved in a series of explosions in the Belgian capital Tuesday that killed at least 34 and injured at least 230, four days after authorities took into custody Salah Abdeslam, a suspect in the Paris attacks that killed 130 people last November.

They had excellent CCTV photos of three men wheeling trolleys in the airport.

Have just had a call from my sister-in-law. She intends flying over there to be with her son, daughter-in-law and their children. I had a text from them letting me they are all right. They live very close to the hub where all of this happened. It seems my nephew's office was used as a place where they dragged the dead and injured and the children were holed up in their creche, which was in lock-down for quite some time. As it happened, my niece-in-law was home that day and was very nervous of course. But thank God, now they are fine.
