Reports of 2 explosions at Brussels airport

There are reports of two explosions at the airport in Brussels, Belgium, according to CNN affiliate VTM.

Federal police at the airport at Zaventem told CNN that “there has been an explosion” and “something has happened.”

The Brussels airport tweeted that there have been two explosions and said that “the building” is being evacuated.

It’s unclear what caused the explosions, or if they’re related to terrorism.

The airport is currently being evacuated and a disaster plan has been initiated, according to CNN affiliate RTL. Passengers have been directed to the runways.

Witnesses told RTL at least one of the two explosions took place in the airport’s departure hall.

The incident comes after Salah Abdeslam, a man who authorities say was involved in the Paris terror attacks last year, was arrested in the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek on Friday.
