Belgian prosecutors say more people have been detained in counter-terrorism raids in Brussels prompted by the arrest of a Frenchman in the Paris area suspected of plotting a new attack.
The federal prosecutor's office says three people were arrested on Friday in three different districts of the Belgian capital - Schaerbeek, Forest and Saint-Gilles - according to the Associated Press.
Two of the people detained were shot in the leg, the federal prosecutor's office said.
According to Belgian media, blasts were also heard during the raids.

The Mirror reported that the man had a young girl of around seven with him, who was escorted away by police.

The man was one of three people arrested today in Brussels and six in raids in the city overnight, according to Sky News.
Three terrorists died in the attacks in Brussels on Tuesday and a massive manhunt was launched to track down other suspects believed to be behind the blasts.
