Belgian authorities asked people not to join a "March against Fear" Sunday after the deadly Brussels airport and metro attacks because of security concerns, suggesting the rally should be delayed by several weeks.

"We invite the citizens tomorrow to not have this manifestation," Interior Minister Jan Jambon said in English Saturday, citing security fears as Belgium remains on high alert after Tuesday's attacks which left 31 dead and 300 wounded.

Organisers said Sunday's march was meant to show that Brussels and the country at large refused to be intimidated by terrorism and that everyone stood together.

"This week, we, Belgian citizens have been attacked, in how we live, our customs, our rights, our liberty," a statement said.
