Two charged, three arrested in Brussels over terror attacks

Two men have been charged with offences related to the Brussels bombings, while three others have been detained in Brussels in connection to the Paris attacks, Belgian authorities said.

The Belgian Federal Prosecutor's office said the two who have been charged, identified only as Smail F and Ibrahim F, were involved in renting an apartment in the Etterbeek area of Brussels that served as a hideout for the bomber who attacked the Brussels subway on March 22 as well as a suspected accomplice.
