Belgium Detains 7 in Terrorism Investigation
News summary

Belgian police have detained seven individuals and searched 14 houses in Antwerp, Liege, Ghent, and the Brussels region as part of a terrorism investigation. The suspects are accused of financing terrorism and planning a terrorist attack, although specific targets have not yet been determined. The operations come amid heightened security concerns, with Belgium's terrorist threat level set at three following a recent attack in Brussels. This investigation coincides with the upcoming Paris Olympics, though authorities have not confirmed any direct link. A judge will decide whether the suspects will be formally charged and detained. Historically, Belgium has been a significant focal point for terrorist activities linked to the 2015 Paris attacks and the 2016 Brussels bombings.
