The Armenian Embassy in Belgium is following the situation after the Brussels Airport blasts, Tigran Balayan, Spokesman for the Armenian Foreign Ministry, tweeted.
On March 22, two explosions forced the evacuation of Brussels Airport around 8 a.m. The sources of the blasts were unclear, as was the number of wounded, though a witness told the media that he had seen people at the airport being taken away on luggage carts. Other images posted on social media showed smoke rising from the departure hall, where the windows had been blown out, and people running away from the building. Hundreds were herded outside, and all arrivals and departures from the airport were halted. A number of flights destined for Brussels that were in the air at the time of the blasts were being diverted to other airports.
