A house in the Deurne district of Antwerp was the target of an attack on Monday night. An explosive device detonated outside the front door of the house in the Deurne South area. Police are investigating whether the attack, in which no one was injured, is linked to the trade in illegal drugs.
An explosion was heard at around 2:30am on Tuesday in the Vuurwerkstraat in Deurne. The street is in a new residential area near to the AZ Monica hospital.
The front door of the house was damaged in the blast. Police and bomb disposal experts from the bomb disposal service DOVO attended the scene and remained there for several hours.
