(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The Belgian capital has cancelled its traditional New Year's Eve celebrations due to the threat of a terror attack.

Brussels mayor Yvan Mayeur said the decision was made following a risk analysis by security experts.

He told broadcaster RTBF: "Unfortunately we have been forced to cancel the fireworks and all that was planned for tomorrow (Thursday) evening and that would have brought a lot of people together in the centre of Brussels."



Last month schools, universities and the Metro were shut down in Brussels for several days after authorities raised the alert over a "serious and imminent" terror threat.

Belgium, and Brussels in particular, have been at the centre of investigations into the Paris attacks after it emerged that two of the suicide bombers who attacked the French capital had lived in the country.

The terrorist, are scared if you ask me.

The bastards, won't come do it on my home land because they are scared because we are highly prepared for this bullshit.

They only attack people like that, cause they are unprepared and they are 3rd World Country's and etc.
