BRUSSELS — Explosions at the airport and a downtown metro stop rocked the city today, killing at least 26 people, wounding more than 100 and shutting down all public transportation.
Terror alerts rose across Europe, in the U.S. and around the world.
Belgium's federal prosecutor confirmed the blasts at the airport were caused by a suicide attack. The explosion at the metro station was near buildings that house European Union institutions in central Brussels.
"We were fearing terrorist attacks and that has now happened," Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel said.
