"The suspect killed by a sniper during Tuesday's anti-terror raid at a property here has been identified as Mohamed Bel Caid, a 35-year-old Algerian national staying in Belgium illegally, federal prosecutor Eric Van Der Sypt said at a press conference on Wednesday.

 

His body was found at the property on Rue de Dries, in the Brussels district of Forest, next to a kalashnikov, a book on Salafism and an Islamic State (IS) flag, Van Der Sypt told reporters, but no explosives were found. Two people fled the scene of the raid and are still actively sought, the prosecutor added."
