| Belgium’s interior minister, Jan Jambon, says the investigation into the airport attacks is focusing on the three men pictured pushing suitcases on trolleys through the departure hall – and particularly a man in a light-coloured coat and a hat who is believed to have fled the airport after his bomb failed to detonate: | |
| Two of them killed themselves, suicide bombers, and the third left a bomb in the airport but it didn’t explode, lucky. We are now looking for this guy. | |
| Belgian police have issued further images of the suspect, asking: “Do you recognise this man?” | |

| Peruvian Adelma Tapia Ruiz, 36, was the first publicly confirmed death from the attack. Ruiz, who lived in Brussels, was at the airport to see off relatives of her Belgian husband, Christopher Delcambe, who was reportedly injured. | |
| Ruiz’s brother, Fernando Tapia Coral, said in an interview that the couple’s twin four-year-old daughters went outside the gate area to play shortly before the explosion and Delcambe followed them. He was unable to find Tapia Ruiz after the blast. | |
| Tapia Coral confirmed his sister’s death on Facebook, saying: | |
| This tragedy today touched the doors of my family this morning in the Brussels airport, when my sister Adelma Tapia died in the terrorist attack and was not able to survive this jihadist attack that we’ll never understand. | |
