Due to the attacks in Brussels, the border between France and Belgium has been closed. So reports Belgian broadcaster RTBF. It is unclear how long the border will remain closed. Extra border controls are also taking place in the rest of the country.
The borders have been closed due to the attacks that took place in Brussels this morning, killing at least 13 people. Attacks were carried out at Zaventem airport and at several metro stations in Brussels. The threat level in Brussels is level 4. In addition to public transport in the Brussels area and train stations, the city's tunnels are now closed to all traffic, reports Mobiris, the Brussels Mobility traffic centre.
According to the Traffic Information Service, travel time between Belgium and the Netherlands may also increase. Transport may be particularly affected by delays on the A2 (Maastricht), A4 (Bergen op Zoom), A16 (Breda) and A67 (Eersel).
