Suspect Detained near Israeli Embassy in Brussels, Carrying Molotov Cocktail
In a significant development, Belgian security forces arrested a suspect outside the Israeli embassy in Brussels on Friday evening. The Israeli Foreign Ministry confirmed the arrest, but no official statement about the incident has been issued by Belgian police yet.
The suspect, whose identity remains undisclosed, was reportedly found with a Molotov cocktail in his possession. The arrest comes amidst an increase in attacks targeting Israeli diplomatic missions across Europe.
Authorities have not disclosed any further details about the arrest, including the suspect's intentions. However, the Israeli Foreign Ministry has confirmed that all embassy staff are safe following the incident in Brussels.
This is not the first time an Israeli embassy has been targeted. In February, a suspect was arrested in Berlin on suspicion of planning an attack on the Israeli embassy there. In July, a suspicious package was investigated at the Israeli embassy in Copenhagen. The Israeli embassy in Brussels was the latest target in this series of attacks.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry posted about the arrest on their official platform, confirming the incident. Despite the lack of official details, the arrest serves as a reminder of the ongoing security challenges faced by Israeli diplomatic missions in Europe.
As the investigation continues, the Belgian authorities have not yet issued any statements regarding the arrest or the potential motives of the suspect. The public is urged to stay informed and follow any updates from official sources.
