This Cartoonist's Tribute From Paris to Brussels Is Incredibly Moving

On Tuesday morning, explosions rocked the airport and subway system in Brussels, Belgium, killing 12 people and injuring far more. The attacks come just four months after their southern neighbors in France suffered a similar tragedy (though, as of 8:30 a.m. EST, the Brussels explosions have not been confirmed as terrorism), and now a French cartoonist is reaching out in support with a beautiful tribute. 

The French newspaper Le Monde posted a tribute from renowned cartoonist Plantu, showing France supporting Belgium in its time of need.

The photo has more than 5,000 likes on Instagram and 14,000 retweets on Twitter — though some commenters noted that other recent terror attack sites, like Istanbul and Ankara, arguably should have been represented as well.

Speaking at a press conference Tuesday, French President Francois Hollande said the two countries are now "linked with horror," and that Belgium has the full support of the French government. Meanwhile, Belgians are reaching out to anyone who needs it with the hashtag #ikwilhelpen, which translates to #iwanttohelp, offering space in their homes or rides in their cars to anyone who needs to get home.
