"At least two Belgians were killed," Foreign Minister Didier Reynders said according to his spokesman who added that Brussels had received the information from the French authorities.
There were no other details following the announcement on RTBF television.
In Lisbon, the secretary of state for citizens abroad, Jose Cesario, told AFP that "a 63-year-old Portuguese man who lived in Paris and worked in the transport" sector died.
