Photo ReutersBelgian soldiers shot dead a man in the centre of Brussels on Friday evening after he came at them with a knife shouting Allahu Akbar, in a case authorities are treating as a terrorist attack. The soldiers were not seriously hurt in the attack; one had a facial wound and the other's hand was wounded. A spokeswoman for the prosecution service said they were treating the case as one of attempted terrorist murder. In June, troops shot dead a suspected suicide bomber at Brussels' central train station. Authorities treated the incident as an attempted terrorist attack.
