Belgian police have made 16 arrests in anti-terror raids but fugitive Salah Abdeslam remains at large, authorities have said.
At least 22 raids were carried out in Brussels and Charleroi, Belgian federal prosecutor Eric van der Sypt told a news conference.
Police fired two shots at a car during an operation in Molenbeek, injuring one suspect, Mr Van der Sypt said.
No weapons or explosives were found during the searches.
Brussels will remain on the highest level of terror alert, Belgium's Prime Minister Charles Michel said. Universities, schools and the city's metro system will also remain shut.

Abdeslam: Suspect 'meant to blow himself up'
Brussels terror threat: 'Everyone is on edge'
Belgium's jihadist networks
Brussels has been on lockdown all weekend amid a manhunt for Abdeslam, who is suspected of being among the assailants who killed 130 people in Paris on Friday.
Mr Michel told reporters that authorities feared "an attack similar to the one in Paris, with several individuals who could also possibly launch several attacks at the same time in multiple locations".

Media captionEric Van Der Sypt: "Salah Abdeslam is not among the people arrested" Meanwhile, the BBC understands that another of the suspected attackers - pictured in a new French police appeal issued on Sunday - arrived in Greece under the name of M al-Mahmod.
The BBC's Ed Thomas has matched the image released by French police with a photo on the arrival papers of a man who reached the Greek island of Leros on 3 October.
French police have asked for more information about the man, whom they say was the third suicide bomber to strike the Stade de France on 13 November.
Earlier, Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon said the danger to Belgium was not tied to Abdeslam alone.
Image copyright EPA Image caption Police have released an image of one of the attackers, asking for more information about him "The threat is broader than the one suspected terrorist," he told Flemish broadcaster VRT.
It was not clear if Mr Jambon was referring to those involved in the Paris attacks, or others who might be planning attacks in Belgium.
Soldiers joined police officers on patrols in Brussels over the weekend. Many public spaces in the usually bustling capital were deserted, as people heeded official warnings to avoid crowds.
Mohammed Abdeslam, the brother of Brahim Abdeslam who blew himself up in Paris and Salah Abdeslam, spoke to Belgian TV on Sunday to urge his fugitive brother to hand himself in.
