Student riots plaguing France have spread to Belgium, where hundreds of hooded thugs are clashing with police.
The country's French-speaking community have taken to the streets.
Inspired by riots across the border in France, Belgian pupils have taken to the streets in recent days in several towns.
As many as 30,000 rioters have flooded Brussels, an 'unprecedented' number.
They threw cobblestones, bricks, glass bottles, fences and traffic signs at police. One officer was seen taking a samurai sword away from a rioter.
These rioters were seen congregating around Brussels Central Station, which sits between both the European Parliament and the country's legislature building.
Footage showed rioters running amok near the major railway hub. One clip showed masked and hooded figures throwing things into a fire as police stood by watching.
The gathered crowd was heard cheering and whooping as more things were thrown into the inferno.

Another clip showed a group of young people pushing a large dumpster towards a line of police, before tipping it over.
Rioters chucked pieces of wood, as well as a flare, at the gathered riot police who were armed with shields and batons.
The officers were seen retreating as rioters threw flashbangs and smoke grenades at them.
A third clip showed a lone masked rioter pointing fireworks at police, who responded in kind with a water cannon that sent him scurrying away.
Student rioters were joined by trade unionists.
'Things are getting worse at an ever-faster rate, people have had enough.' said union representative Luc Toussaint.
