Brussels Airport will not reopen for passenger flights before Tuesday

The prime suspect in the Brussels attacks has not yet been arrested

BRUSSELS: Brussels Airport said on Saturday it would not reopen for passenger flights before Tuesday after suicide bombers blew themselves up in the departure hall.

Bombs exploded at the airport and at a metro station in Brussels last Tuesday, killing 31 people.



Belgium’s chief prosecutor named two brothers on Wednesday as Islamic State suicide bombers who carried out the most deadly attacks in Brussels’ history but said another key suspect was on the run.



Tuesday’s attacks on a city that is home to the European Union and Nato sent shockwaves across Europe and around the world, with authorities racing to review security at airports and on public transport.
