Two female police officers have been wounded in Belgium by a man
wielding a machete who shouted "Allahu Akbar".

The man was shot after the attack in Charleroi and was later confirmed to
have died from his injuries, the city's police said in a tweet.

Sky's Mark White said one of the officers suffered moderate injuries to
her face and the other was less severely wounded.
He said: "This was an attack that unfolded at 4pm local time in Belgium
outside the police station.

"Two police officers were attacked according to police officials by a man
wielding a machete. "A third officer, who was there at the police station,
opened fire on the attacker.

"Now, there are local reports, this hasn't come from police sources, but
local reports suggesting that the attacker as he set about attacking those
two police officers was heard to shout 'Allahu Akbar', the Arabic phrase
for God is great.'
