Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel has announced three days of national mourning after the deadly attacks in Brussels.
Wrapped in the national flag, carrying candles and flowers, Belgians flocked in their hundreds to the Place de la Bourse in the ancient heart of the city by nightfall to mourn the dead.
A lone musician played a cello as a mourner waved a banner reading "United against hate".
Prime Minister Michel attended the vigil at the city square, and European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker also paid homage to the dead.
