🔔 Bell

A 45-year-old man in Brussels was found bleeding on the street, fearing potential vision loss in his left eye, shortly after ringing his bike bell at vehicles obstructing a bicycle path. The incident has drawn significant attention, highlighting issues of road safety and aggressive encounters in urban environments. In other domestic news, Jacqueline Galant, a minister with the Mouvement Réformateur (MR), has voiced concerns about what she described as "arresting" governance problems at the public broadcaster RTBF. Galant currently serves as the Minister for the Civil Service, Administrative Simplification, Sport, and the Media in both the Walloon Government and the Government of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. On the political front, Bart De Wever of the New Flemish Alliance (N-VA) has served as Prime Minister since February 3, 2025. The federal government is formed by an "Arizona coalition" comprising N-VA, CD&V, Vooruit, MR, and Les Engagés. King Philippe remains the head of state.
