Investigators made progress in the probe of the terrorist bombings in Brussels as Belgian authorities charged a suspect in the March 22 suicide blasts and Italy arrested an Algerian man in connection with the case.<\/p>\n
Amid fears of further attacks by Islamic State, which claimed responsibility for the Brussels atrocities, Belgian federal prosecutors said a man identified as Faycal C. was charged with terrorist murder and being part of a terrorist group on Saturday. Three other suspects have been charged with terrorism offenses in Brussels, two in connection with a foiled plot in France and one in an unspecified case.<\/p>\n
Italian anti-terrorism police, meanwhile, arrested an Algerian man suspected of making fake identity documents for attackers in the Brussels and Paris massacres, Italian media reported. The suspect, Djamal Eddine Ouali, was detained in Salerno on Saturday under a European arrest warrant requested by Belgium, Ansa news agency said. German police earlier arrested two men in connection with the Brussels attacks, Spiegel reported.<\/p>\n
As Brussels sought to return to normality over the long Easter weekend, developments in the Middle East were adding to risks of further attacks. Syrian government forces retook the ancient city of Palmyra from Islamic State on Sunday after weeks of fighting, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on its website. Such setbacks on the battlefield are driving Islamic State to escalate its offensive against civilians in Europe, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Friday during a visit to Brussels.<\/p>\n
Even if the terrorism network behind the attacks in Paris and Brussels “is being wiped out, there’s still a threat weighing on us,” French President Francois Hollande warned on Friday.<\/p>\n
In Brussels, the suspect Faycal C. may have been the man in a cream-colored jacket seen on security cameras at the Brussels airport at the time of the bombing in the departures hall, according to Le Soir newspaper. He was one of three suspects taken into custody outside the prosecutor’s office on Thursday.<\/p>\n
