Belgian news media reporting that SLFP Police have revealed that a security guard at the Doel nuclear power plant, near Charleroi, was shot dead while walking the grounds with his security dog. His identification was stolen. The assassination took place two days after the Tuesday bombings in Brussels. 140 Belgian soldiers have deployed near Belgium’s two nuke plants, Doel and Tihange.
There are unconfirmed reports that a terrorist attack on the nuke plant could be imminent. A Belgian newspaper reporting that SFLP (Syndicat Libre de la Fonction Publique) Police uncovered hours of video of the nuclear plant taken last year by the alleged terrorists behind Tuesday’s bombings.
Belgium has a recent history of problems with its nuclear reactors. In August 2014, Doel was shutdown after an employee sabotaged reactor 4. It was revealed in 2015 that Doel reactors 1 and 2 were supposed to be decommissioned due to age, but the government ordered them to remain in service for another ten years! In December 2015, the Tihange reactor 1 was shutdown after a fire in a “non-nuclear” part of the building. In 2012, Tihange reactor 2 was shutdown due to numerous cracks (it restarted last year).
