U velikoj antiterorističkoj akciji koju su specijalne jedinice provele tijekom nedjelje u Bruxellesu uhićeno je 16 osoba, a uz niz strogih mjera predostrožnosti policija je građane zamolila i da o njihovom djelovanju ne pišu na društvenim mrežama. No Belgijanci su pokazali da imaju sjajan smisao za humor: protiv terora su se odlučili boriti - smijehom i mačkama.
Sve je počelo nakon što je ministar odbrane Belgije Steven Vandeput napisao na Twitteru: "Policija moli građane da na društvenim mrežama ne otkrivaju njihovo kretanje".
Odgovor građana je bio neočekivan. Umjesto fotografija policije u ulicama u centru Bruxellesa, građani su počeli objavljivati fotografije mačaka uz hashtag #BrusselsLockdown.
