: Police had carried out about 40 house searches overnight, according to The Guardian. The arrests came shortly before many parties began across Belgium on Saturday to watch live broadcasts of the country Euro 2016 group stage match against Ireland and there were reports that such events could have been the targets. Nine other suspects arrested have been released. Charles Michel, the prime minister, said the nation would remain extremely vigilant, hour by hour , but the terror level would remain at the second-highest, meaning a threat of an attack is possible and likely . Belgians have been living under this level since the March attacks on the Brussels subway and airport which killed 32. He refused to elaborate on the nature of the threat. It will be the case in the coming hours that we will take additional and adapted measures, Michel said after a meeting of the nation security council.
