新奇事件簿 比利时挫败新年恐袭图谋（在线收听）

Police in Belgium say they have arrested two people suspected of planning terror attacks in Brussels on New Year's Eve. Police initially made six arrests but later released four without charge. Investigators found military clothing and Islamic State propaganda in the houses, but no weapons or explosives. They issued a statement, saying: "Our investigation revealed serious threats of an attack on symbolic places in Brussels during the celebrations for New Year's Eve." The two suspects were arrested following searches Sunday and Monday in Brussels and across Belgium. The police did not say whether the suspects were male or female, nor if they were looking for other suspects.

据比利时警方表示，布鲁塞尔警方逮捕两名涉嫌在新年前夜发动恐袭嫌疑人。起初，警方逮捕6人，其中4人被无罪释放。警方在其家中发现军服和“伊斯兰国”宣传材料，但未发现武器或爆炸物。警方在声明中指出：“在新年节庆期间，恐怖团伙企图对布鲁塞尔多个标志性地点发动袭击。”周日和周一两天，警方在布鲁塞尔和全国展开搜捕活动，并逮捕两名嫌犯。警方并没有公开嫌犯性别，也没有对是否继续搜捕发表声明。

The arrests are not linked to the November Paris attacks in which 130 people were killed. Brussels has been on high alert since those attacks, with intelligence reports suggesting an attack of some kind was coming. In the wake of the Paris attacks, schools, universities and the Metro were shut down in Brussels for several days in November. The city was put on the highest state of alert as authorities warned of a "serious and imminent" terror threat. Brussels has also been at the centre of investigations into the Paris attacks after it emerged that two of the Paris suicide bombers had lived in Belgium. Other major European cities are also on alert and police have warned citizens to be vigilant.

此次拘捕行动与去年11月巴黎恐袭案无关，巴黎恐袭造成130人遇难。多起袭击以来，布鲁塞尔一直高度戒备，有情报指出布鲁塞尔仍将发生恐袭事件。巴黎事件发生之后，布鲁塞尔的所有大中院校，地铁停运。布鲁塞尔拉响最高警报 当地面临严重威胁，且迫在眉睫。布鲁塞尔一直是巴黎恐袭案的调查中心，之前有调查表示，两名自杀式炸弹嫌犯曾居住在比利时。许多欧洲主要城市也提高警备，并建议民众提高警惕。
