Park investigation into terrorist motive for abandoned explosive at church in Antwerp-North
The federal prosecutor's office is investigating whether a homemade explosive left at a church in Antwerp-North had a terrorist motive. The explosive, found on Sunday, consisted of a jerrycan filled with gasoline and fireworks, along with small metal fragments. This suggests it was designed to cause significant harm. The investigation is focused on the potential targeting of the Belarusian Greek Catholic Church and the nature of the explosive. A 35-year-old man was arrested the same day and is suspected of involvement in terrorist activities and attempted murder.
