Belgian Security Forces

Belgian security forces have identified a man who set off an explosion at a Brussels train station before he was shot and killed, Interior Minister Jan Jambon said today.

Nico Rosberg, who started from his third successive pole position, led from start to finish in a 44-laps race fractured by accidents and incidents to secure his first victory in Belgium and his sixth of the season

Belgian security forces made more than a dozen arrests in a series of raids across the capital on Sunday night as they hunted down suspected Islamic State militants, but said sweeping security measures would be kept in place as the major suspect from the Paris attacks remained at large.

The Belgian capital was locked-down for a second day today with police and troops on the streets as the authorities said they were searching for "several suspects" linked to the bloody attacks in Paris.

Belgium today began deploying hundreds of troops to patrol the streets after security forces smashed a suspected Islamist "terrorist" cell planning to kill police officers.

A special breed of military canine that is credited to have helped US Navy SEALs in sniffing out Al Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden's hideout in Pakistan, is now part of the country's elite counter-terror and counter-hijack commando operations force, National Security Guard (NSG).
