Swedish daughter classified as 36th victim of 2016 Brussels attacks

A Swedish woman whose mother was killed in the 2016 terrorist attack in Brussels has been classified as the 36th victim of the attack.

The Swede's name has been engraved on a memorial plaque at Brussels Airport, RTBF reports. She lost her mother when two suicide bombers blew themselves up in the airport terminal. Another terrorist blew himself up at the Maelbeek metro station.

The mother was visiting her daughter who lived in Brussels. The daughter died by suicide earlier this year, and is now classified as the 36th victim of the attack that shook Belgium.

In connection with the tenth anniversary of the attack, several ceremonies are being held around the country.
