On March 22, 2016, two coordinated Muslim terrorist attacks in Brussels, Belgium, were carried out by the Islamic State. Three coordinated Islamic suicide bombings occurred: two at Brussels Airport in Zaventem and one at Maalbeek metro station on the Brussels metro. Thirty-two civilians and three Muslim terrorists were killed, and more than 300 were injured. Another bomb was found during a search of the airport in Brussels. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attacks.

A total of five Muslims were involved, with three of them dying in suicide bombings and the remaining two arrested in the weeks after. All were involved in planning and organizing the 2015 Islamic Paris attacks. 

New recordings of the Terrorists released

Just days ago, Belgian media obtained previously unreleased recordings of the Muslims days before they carried out the attacks. Authorities discovered the recordings after the attacks on a discarded laptop belonging to one of the suicide bombers – Najim Laachraoui, who built the bombs used in the Paris and Brussels attacks. 

The terrorists then detailed methods to kill the Belgians and vowed they would be attacking soon:

“Fight them with weapons if you know how to get them. Take a grenade, throw it at them, shoot at them. Take a knife to cut their throats, come from behind and open their skull with an axe or a rock. Back over them with a car. All methods are good to kill them.”

On the night of 21-22 March, the two terrorists recorded their final message. They announced that they would be donating their explosives soon. They also revealed that they had chosen their targets: the Metro and the airport.
