Belgian prosecutors charged two suspects detained after Friday’s deadly assaults in Paris with taking part in a terrorist attack and said a search in the capital district of Sint-Jans-Molenbeek on Monday didn’t lead to new arrests.

Five of the seven suspects detained on Saturday have been released by the investigating judge, the federal prosecutor’s office said on Monday in a statement. The remaining two, whose identities weren’t revealed, were arrested on charges of terrorist attack and participation in activities of a terrorist group, prosecutors said.
