The city of Brussels is on lock-down after a series of massive explosions at the airport and metro system. At least 28 people are dead.
The attacks come after the arrest last week in Brussels of Salah Abdeslam, who is suspected of helping carry out the November 13 attacks in Paris.
The threat is ongoing and the Prime Minister of Beligium warned residents to “stay inside.”
The Deputy Prime Minister advised that people attempting to make contact with individuals in Brussels use messaging apps rather than the phone system, which is overloaded.
Citizens are scrawling messages of support in colored chalk on the streets
