Nearly 30 people died and close to 300 were injured after the Brussels airport and a metro station were bombed on Tuesday.

Terror outfit Islamic State on Thursday released a video where it has called on its followers to claim victory and wage jihad.

In a video released on social media, the Islamic State claimed that Belgium was part of a coalition fighting militants in the Middle East.

It also featured the training of Belgian militants suspected in the Nov 13 shooting and suicide bombing rampage by the terror outfit that killed 130 people in Paris.
