(File photo)A man has been shot dead in the centre of Brussels after attacking two soldiers with a knife, Belgian prosecutors say. A spokeswoman for federal prosecutors said the man had shouted "Allahu Akbar" (Arabic for "God is great") twice during the attack. The soldiers were lightly wounded in the attack, one in the face and the other in the hand. In June, troops shot dead a suspected suicide bomber in Brussels' central train station but there were no other casualties, in what authorities treated a terrorist incident.
