Belgian police detain 3 over a suspected plot to attack politicians with a drone

Belgian police on Thursday detained three people over a suspected plot to attack the country's politicians including Prime Minister Bart De Wever with a drone carrying explosives. The three were taken into custody after an anti-terrorism judge ordered searches of their homes in the port city of Antwerp by police officers working with explosives sniffer dogs, federal prosecutors said in a statement. “There are also indications that the intention was to build a drone to attach a load,” the prosecutors said.
