(AFP) Lachlan Carmichael - The Islamic State suicide bombers who attacked Brussels airport on March 22, 2016, targeted passengers travelling to the U.S. and also Jewish people. Airport security camera footage shows one bomber apparently pursuing Hasidic Jews seconds before one of the blasts. One of the airport bombers attacked the Delta Airlines check-in at Zaventem airport. "Early on (in the investigation) there were indications that they targeted U.S., Russian and Israeli check-in counters," a U.S. law enforcement source said. An airport source said a bomb that did not explode was left near the United and El Al counters, which face each other.
