The authorities stopped the Flixbus near the city of Ghent. He was traveling from Lille, France, to Brussels. According to the information, three people were temporarily arrested. The bus was examined inside and out, including with an explosives dog. It was initially unclear whether the conversation was about the specific preparation of an attack.
