A man who was shot in Brussels after attacking two soldiers with a knife last night has died, according to Belgium's federal prosecutors.
They added that they were treating the event as an attempted terrorist murder.
A spokeswoman for federal prosecutors said the man had shouted "Allahu Akbar" (Arabic for "God is Great") twice during the attack.
The two soldiers were lightly wounded in the attack, one in the face and the other in the hand.
In addition to regular police, Brussels streets are being patrolled by soldiers due to a heightened security threat level in the wake of militant attacks in Paris and the Belgian capital in 2015 and 2016.
In June, troops shot dead a suspected suicide bomber in Brussels' central train station but there were no other casualties, in what authorities treated a terrorist incident.
