Police in Belgium raided homes and made at least one arrest early Wednesday in connection with a suicide bombing in Iraq several weeks ago.
Belgian news reports say a Belgian woman blew herself up on November 9 in an attack on an American patrol in Baghdad. No one besides the bomber was killed in the attack.
A police spokeswoman confirmed that Wednesday's raids were carried out to find the woman's co-conspirators.
Thirteen people of Belgian and Moroccan origin accused of belonging to an Islamic militant group are currently on trial in Brussels. Their group is suspected of bomb attacks in Spain and Morocco that killed a total of 236 people.
That trial is the first under a new anti-terror law in Belgium that makes it a crime to associate with terrorists.
