“Israel, other countries warned Brussels about security breaches in airport and ISIS terror threat”
Just a few weeks ago, Israeli security officials conducted a routine inspection of the Zaventem Airport. They warned the Belgian authorities about severe shortcomings in the airport’s security procedures.

In the past 24 hours, several reports have surfaced that imply that Belgium was warned against the murderous intentions of an ISIS terror cell in Brussels. Now, it turns out that Israel voiced its concerns about serious security breaches at the airport- where the first terror attack took place- and claimed that “there are serious deficiencies at the airport in Brussels.” Meanwhile, Belgium remains on high alert as the airport will remain closed for the next two days and the manhunt for the 3rd terrorist continues. …


Recently, Israel warned the Belgium authorities that their security measures at the Zaventem Airport in Brussels are flawed. Israeli security officials, who are trained to inspect all airports to which flights from Israel travel, identified the breaches and updated the Belgian authorities.

This was a routine inspection but the findings were extremely disturbing. Now, Israeli airlines, which operate their counter not far from the American Airlines counter where the explosion took place yesterday, announced that they will be changing their internal security measures, not just in Brussels but in other airports in Europe, in order to cope with the inadequate security systems of certain European airports.
