The ISIS group (banned on the territory of the Russian Federation) claimed responsibility for two explosions in Brussels. As a result of the attacks, 34 people were killed, about 200 were seriously injured.

The US State Department said on Wednesday that 12 American citizens were injured in Brussels, including 19-year-old Mormon missionary Mason Wells. The American found a rupture of the Achilles tendon, multiple shrapnel injuries, as well as second and third degree burns on his face and hands.

Last year, Mason was in Paris on the very day that several terrorist attacks were carried out on the city. During the Boston Marathon, a young missionary and a colleague were within a block of the finish line where the explosion occurred. There they were waiting for Mason's mother, who took part in the race.
The parents of the lucky man report that everything is fine with their son - he behaves with restraint, calmly and is now undergoing rehabilitation in a Brussels hospital. Mason told them not to worry: “I don't think you need to go to Europe, but I won't stop you if you want,” young Wells told his father during a telephone conversation. “The burns are not terrible, I’m sure there won’t even be scars.”
