Belgian PM confirms some Muslims 'danced' after Brussels attacks

"I confirm that there have been expressions of support for the attacks. The council of [national] security has also been informed [about the incident]," Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel said, as cited by Belga news agency.

PM Charles Michel confirmed an earlier comment by the country’s interior minister, who said that a portion of the Muslim community was “dancing” in the streets following the deadly Brussels attacks in March.

He added, however, that the apparent support for the deadly attacks came from “minorities” in the Muslim community and that “it is not appropriate to generalize” about the community as a whole.
