Belgium releases 11 detained in anti-terror raids

The Belgian authorities on Thursday released 11 people arrested in a series of anti-terror raids targeting jihadists who have returned from Syria, federal prosecutors said. The arrests took place overnight Tuesday when police searched nine houses in various areas of Brussels including Molenbeek, the district that was home to several of those involved in the Paris and Brussels attacks. "Everybody has been released after thorough questioning," the federal prosecutor's office said in a statement, giving no other details.
