Belgian PM Charles Michel Announces “Serious and Imminent” Threat from ISIS

This image of Islamic State (ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was made from video posted on a militant website Saturday, July 5, 2014.

Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel announced that schools, subways will be closed due to a “serious and imminent” threat from the Islamic State and other Islamists. Brussels is now on its second day under the highest threat level and the manhunt continues for a suspect missing since the Nov. 13 attacks in France.

On Saturday, as PPD previously reported, the U.S. Embassy in Belgium issued a “shelter in place” order after local authorities raised the threat of an Islamic terror attack to imminent.
