This is not the first time local

This is the shocking moment an man in Arabic dress tried to remove an Israel flag from a Brussels memorial before pretending to collapse.

A video taken at the scene shows a huge crowd gathered around the tributes for victims of the terrorist bombings last week in Place de la Bourse in Brussels.

But the peace is shattered as an elderly man in a white cap starts shouting on the sidelines, apparently screaming about Jews and Palestine.

'Everyone together!' a Belgian man can be heard shouting in defiance near the person filming.

This enrages the angry man further and he strides into the middle of the memorial. People point in horror and cries of, 'Scandalous!' can be heard.

But the man stands his ground and seems to be revving his body up as he bends his knees and brings his arm together.

A local man tries to take the flag that the elderly man had grabbed, but the latter responds by collapsing on the ground, as though he's been struck.
