Brussels group ‘initially planned to hit France’

The suspected surviving bomber in the Brussels attacks has admitted the group was initially planning a new attack on France,

Belgian prosecutors say.

Mohamed Abrini said the group had decided to attack Brussels instead after the arrest of fellow suspect Salah Abdeslam.

He also reportedly admitted being the third bomber in the airport attack, fleeing without setting off his device.

Gun and bomb attacks in Paris on 13 November killed 130 people.
