A synagogue in the Belgian city of Liège was rocked on Monday morning by an explosion outside its doors in what authorities are considering a potential terror attack.
At around 4 am on Monday morning, a blast was heard outside the synagogue on Rue Léon Frédéricq in the city of Liège, in the French-speaking Wallonia region of Belgium. Fortunately, no one was injured in the explosion.
According to a report from Le Soir, federal prosecutors have taken over the case “given the possible indications of a terrorist act.”
The country’s Explosive Ordnance Disposal Service (SEDEE) has also been deployed to the scene to investigate.
So far, authorities have not commented on a possible motive; however, Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever wrote of the attack: “An explosion occurred in front of a synagogue in Liège last night. Antisemitism is an attack on our values and our society, and we must fight it unequivocally.
“We stand in solidarity with the Jewish community in Liège and across the country.”
