European airports increase security after Brussels attacks

March 22, 2016 18:07

Authorities in Europe have tightened security at airports, on subways, at the borders and on city streets after deadly attacks today on the Brussels airport and its subway system.

The Paris airport authority said security was tightened at all Paris airports soon after the Brussels explosions on Tuesday morning. Airports in London, Prague, Amsterdam, Vienna, and many others, also saw increased security.

The attacks come just days after the main suspect in the November 13 Paris attacks was arrested in Brussels on Friday.
