BRUSSELS TERROR ATTACKS: ONE BRITON DEAD

This morning , U.K Prime Minister David Cameron at a security meeting said four Britons had been injured and one more missing in the Brussels attacks. See what he said below...

We are concerned about one missing British national and we are in close contact with the Belgian authorities. We are aware of four British nationals who were injured in the attacks — three are being treated in hospital, one has already been discharged. Our embassy staff are working to assist all British nationals affected,” Cameron said.
“In terms of travel advice, we continue to advise people to follow the advice of the Belgian authorities. Therefore we are no longer advising against travel to Brussels. British nationals in Belgium should remain alert and vigilant, stay away from crowded places, and follow the instructions of the Belgian authorities.
“Here in the UK, we stepped up the security presence at a number of locations across the country yesterday and we will maintain this in the coming days. The national threat level remains at SEVERE (an attack is highly likely) and the public are advised to be ‘alert but not alarmed’.
He added that the U.K government will observe a minute silence by 11 a.m he says
