“We are deeply saddened and appalled by the bombings in Brussels today, and by the recent violence in Turkey. Our thoughts are with the victims of these attacks, and their families,” said Google in a blog post.
The blasts in Brussels on 22 March have reportedly claimed the lives of 30 people and have left 230 people wounded.
