Just two days after the ISIS bombing of a Brussels airport that killed 31, a security guard for a Belgian nuclear power plant has been murdered, Derniere Heure (DH) reports. 

Weeks before the Brussels attack, Belgian police had found video footage which showed that ISIS was spying on the Belgian nuclear program director, and was possibly planning to attack a nuclear power plant. 

In late February, Belgium deployed 140 soldiers to secure the nuclear power plants throughout the country, but the airport bombing last week has renewed fears of a possible attack at a nuclear facility.
