Two policewomen wounded by machete-wielding man in Belgium

Published

Two female police officers have been badly wounded by a machete-wielding man who yelled  “Allahu Akbar!” (God is greatest) before attacking the cops in the Belgian city of Charloi.
The assailant attacked the cops outside the main police station in the southern Belgian city but lost his life after sustaining gun wounds following the incident.
Recall that Islamist bombers killed 32 people in suicide attacks in Brussels in March, and many of the jihadists who carried out attacks on Paris last November in which 130 people died were based in Belgium.
