BRUSSELS: The main airport in Belgium’s capital is expected to resume normal operations on Wednesday, after halting some 80 flights after suspected drone sightings, a spokeswoman said. Some 400-500 passengers had to spend the night at Zaventem airport because of the sightings, Brussels Airport spokesman Ariane Goossens told AFP. “The situation will return to normal during the day” as flights restart, she said. On Tuesday night, air traffic was also halted as a precaution at the second-largest airport Charleroi, operators there said.
