Brussels---Belgium's government is ready to call in troops to increase security after a huge police operation raided a suspected Islamist cell that was planning attacks on police, Prime Minister Charles Michel said Friday.
"The army will be available to reinforce our levels of security," Michel said after a special cabinet meeting, which discussed other steps such as isolating Islamist prisoners in special sections in jails.
