The terrorist who shot up a train station in Brussels this evening with an AK-47 uploaded a message to Facebook beforehand.
Here are the key points:
''In the name of Allah, this is a message from the soldiers of the Islamic State.''
''The Islamic State will remain despite your laws.''
''We live for our religion and we die for our religion,”
Media reports aired amateur videos showing a man shooting several times near a station using a large weapon, and Belgian broadcasters said the two victims were Swedes. The gunman is said to be on the run.
The shooting comes at a time of increased vigilance linked to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war that has heightened tension in several European nations.
