An Islamist group that had claimed responsibility for previous attacks on Jews in Europe was said to also be behind the one in Flanders

No one was injured in the incident, which followed at least five suspected terrorist attacks in Europe for which a hitherto unknown Islamist person or group called Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya (HAYI) has claimed responsibility. Jews were targeted in at least four of those attacks.
