(Reuters) -Flights bound for Brussels Airport were held or diverted late Thursday, according to flight tracking site Flightradar24, which cited unconfirmed reports of renewed drone sightings.

Reuters has not independently verified the drone reports.

Belgium had called an emergency meeting of key government ministers and security chiefs for Thursday after drone sightings forced closures of airports and a military air base on Tuesday evening in what the defence minister called a coordinated attack.
