Brussels Airport to remain closed Thursday amid bomb probe

[PARIS] Brussels Airport will remain closed at least through Thursday as terrorism investigators sift through the site seeking evidence in the twin bombing attacks a day ago that killed at least 31 people.

There will be no passenger flights in or out on Thursday, the airport said Wednesday in a statement on its website. Earlier in the day, the airport operator said it had no access to the terminal because the investigation is still under way, making it impossible to assess the damage to the building.

Six stations on the national rail system in and around Brussels also remain shut. The main train stations, Nord and Midi, are open.
