At least 34 people are dead after terror attacks in Brussels on March 22, with eyewitnesses describing a chaotic scene of carnage.

Zach Mouzoun, who had just arrived on a flight from Geneva about 10 minutes before the first explosion, said a second, louder explosion brought down ceilings and ruptured pipes, mixing water with blood from victims.

There was blood everywhere, injured people, bags everywhere.

“It was atrocious. The ceilings collapsed,” he told BFM television. “There was blood everywhere, injured people, bags everywhere.”

“We were walking in the debris. It was a war scene,” he added.

Samir Derrouich, who works at a restaurant at the airport, told the Daily Mail: “The two explosions were almost simultaneous.”

He added: “They were both at check in desk. One was close to the Starbucks. It was awful. There was just blood. It was like the apocalypse.”

I was very lucky. I think I have a guardian angel somewhere.
