March 22, 2016 23:40

Brussels airport will remained closed tomorrow, an official said, after twin bombings killed 14 people in the departure hall.

"The airport will remain closed through Wednesday," the airport's chief executive Arnaud Feist said on Zaventem airport's official twitter feed.

In a briefing, Feist added: "It's too soon to evaluate the damage in the terminal. We don't yet have access since the investigators are still busy with their probe."

"Tomorrow (Wednesday) we'll see the state of the terminal and whether we can quickly fix what was damaged and restart some of the facilities," he said.

Under normal circumstances about 20,000 people work at the airport daily, he said.
