Those behind the deadly November attacks in Paris were likely to have "greater ambitions" of conducting a nuclear attack on the European continent, a Belgian news outlet reported Wednesday, citing sources in the investigation team.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — According to the Derniere Heure newspaper, Belgian police discovered a video during a raid to search for terrorist suspects showing the entrance door to the apartment of the director of a nuclear research program in Belgium. The video was apparently recorded using a hidden camera and has a running time of "not less than 10 hours."

The investigators underscored that it would be impossible to date the tape, which would mean it could have been recorded before or after the Paris attacks, the newspaper said.

Belgian police have been conducting anti-terror raids since a series of terrorist attacks in Paris claimed the lives of some 130 people on November 13. Daesh, which is outlawed in Russia and many other countries, claimed responsibility for the attacks.

Some of the terrorists allegedly responsible for the attacks arrived in France from Belgium, according to the police. The Belgium authorities have charged 10 people with involvement in the Paris attacks.
