Two blasts have struck the departures area of Zaventem airport in Brussels, according to the BBC.
The Belgian government has confirmed casualties but has given no numbers. The cause of the explosions is unknown.
The airport is being evacuated and has been closed to flights.
Rail transport to the facility has been halted and people have been told not to come to the airport.
All flights have been diverted.
The blasts come four days after the capture in Brussels of Salah Abdeslam, the main suspect in the jihadist attacks in Paris on 13 November 2015.
Belgium has now raised its terror threat to its highest level.
