This is the shocking moment a woman removes an Israeli flag from a Brussels memorial and rips it up, before hiding the pieces away underneath another flag.

A French-language station captured the footage at the shrine set up at Brussels' Place de la Bourse.

During the clip, which is just over one minute long, a woman wearing a hijab, a brown coat and a scarf picks up a Palestinian flag from the candle-lit vigil and takes it over to an Israeli flag.

She bends down to pick up the blue and white Israeli flag and begins ripping it up, before placing the pieces beneath another flag, which looks as though it could be the symbol of Georgia

The woman then walks off out of shot, with not one of the many onlookers approaching her to question her over her shocking actions.

It is unclear whether she has placed the Palestinian flag in the Israeli flag's place, however you can see that she is no longer carrying it when she walks away.

The French-language station does not refer to the women's actions and instead the discussion that can be heard is about the official memorial marches and ceremonies in Paris.

This shocking video is not the only time an Israeli flag has been tampered with at the memorial.

Another clip shows a man, wearing beige trousers, a black hooded jacket and gloves, walking into the middle of the candle-lit memorial.

He picks up a Palestinian flag and places it over the Israeli flag so it can no longer be seen.

Once again, there are many onlookers but although some people can be heard saying 'no, no, no', nobody takes action.

Since the tragic terror attacks that took place in Brussels on Tuesday, the Place de la Bourse - the plaza outside Belgium's stock exchange - has become a spot where those wishing to can pay their respects to victims and their families.

Thousands gathered there for a candle-lit vigil on Tuesday evening, just hours after 34 people lost their lives. Some carried banners that read: 'Je Suis Bruxelles'.
