The airport in Brussels was in shambles from a terror attack.
The United States declared Tuesday it was reassessing its security status in the face of the Brussels terror attacks, while world leaders sent out strong messages of condemnation, calling the strikes “barbaric” and warning citizens to stay on high alert.
Fox News reported Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said the United States hasn’t received “specific or credible” threats that have targeted the nation, but that intelligence and security officials are “reassessing” the situation.
“They’re doing a reassessment, re-calibration,” Fox reported, citing Johnson.
Meanwhile, world leaders have issued strong statements of condemnation against the terrorists who struck at the heart of Brussels on Tuesday, killing at least 13 and injuring 35 or more during a series of blasts that hit at the airport and subway system.
Russia President Vladimir Putin called the terror strikes “barbaric acts” through his press secretary Dmitry Peskov.
“The president resolutely condemned these barbaric acts, expressed his condolences to the Belgian people and assured King Philippe of absolute solidarity with the Belgians in these difficult hours,” Peskov said, BBC reported.
And Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said, BBC reported: “As more and more time and lives are lost, people are beginning to understand that this policy of double standards in evaluating terrorist activities is a dead-end policy.”
