Overview

• Belgian police raided homes in Antwerp on Thursday, seizing a homemade but inoperative explosive, a bag of steel balls and a 3D printer linked to a suspected drone plan.
• Prosecutors say the suspects intended a jihadist-inspired attack on politicians, with two men aged 23 and 18 due before a judge after a third detainee was released.
• Flemish broadcasters VTM and VRT reported, citing sources, that Geert Wilders appeared on a target list, while the threat to Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever was considered more serious.
• Interior Minister Bernard Quintin said prosecutors informed him of a list containing a few people that included foreign politicians, without confirming any names.
• Wilders canceled a planned NOS campaign debate and said he would not travel until the reports are verified, as the Dutch counterterror agency declined to comment.
