Brussels airport closed due to air traffic control action


BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Brussels airport was closed on Tuesday and the nearby airport in Charleroi only accepted landing aircraft with no planes taking off because of industrial action by Belgian air traffic controllers, officials said.

The airport has been running at limited capacity since reopening on April 3 following an Islamic State suicide bombing on March 22.
