Four people have died in hospital following last week's triple bombing attack in Brussels, the federal prosecution says, raising the total number of victims to 35.
The attacks took place on the morning of March 22 at the Belgian capital's international airport and at the Maelbeek metro station, near the Brussels seat of the European Union's main institutions.
Thirty-one people died in the explosions, in addition to the three suicide bombers. Four more people have since died in hospital, a prosecution spokesman said, quoting figures issued by the federal health department.
The Islamic State extremist group has claimed responsibility for the attacks.
'Hooligans' arrested at protest in Brussels
Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel had called for calm after around 450 black-clad football supporters - some hooded and apparently drunk - gathered in central Brussels chanting "Belgian hooligans, we are at home", the agency says.
Reported to have come from the town of Vilvoorde, north of Brussels, the protesters gathered at the square outside the former stock exchange in Brussels on Sunday, despite calls by authorities not to hold any demonstrations in the wake of the attacks.
Police had earlier encircled the crowd on the square, then pushed them back to a nearby train station, where they were put on trains heading back north.
Around 10 people have so far been taken into custody, Belga reported.
The hooligans vandalised public property and threw rubbish cans along the way, while hitting police with projectiles, Belga reported. Two police officers were slightly injured. Other people booed and applauded as the hooligans were pushed back, according to the agency.
