There are as of yet no confirmed South Korean victims related to Tuesday's bombings in Brussels, Belgium, that left dozens of people dead and some 200 injured, a Seoul government official said Wednesday.

"We understand that Belgium has been notifying governments around the world of any casualties. But we have not been notified of any South Korean casualties," the official told Yonhap News Agency, declining to be named.

But observers say that it would take time to verify the exact identities of all the fatalities in the bombings, which could include South Korean nationals.

Seoul's embassy in Belgium has set up a task force to ascertain if any South Koreans were hurt in the blasts. (Yonhap)
