Belguim weighs extending lockdown over terror fears
Belgian security officials meet Sunday to decide whether to extend a lockdown in Brussels over fears jihadists are plotting a Paris-style attack, as police stepped up their hunt for key suspects behind the carnage in the French capital.
The Belgian capital closed its metro system and shuttered shops and public buildings on Saturday as its terror threat was raised to its highest level over reports of an "imminent threat" of a major gun and bomb attack.
Mali was struck a week after Paris and Beirut - where 44 people were killed in IS bombings - and three weeks after the militants claimed to have downed a Russian plane in Egypt killing all 224 on board.
In Cameroon, five people were killed and 10 wounded on Saturday when four teenage girls blew themselves up in a flashpoint northern town close to the Nigerian border that is often targeted by IS-allied Boko Haram Islamists.
