CHARLEROI, Belgium (AP) — Belgium's prime minister is cutting short his vacation in France to return to Brussels for a meeting tomorrow of the National Security Council.

The prime minister says "preliminary indications" suggest the attack was an act of terrorism, but that authorities are still collecting information.

He also says organizers will look whether drivers of official buses have had sufficient training, after reports of some of the buses getting lost.
