Woman Bomber Planned to Blow Herself Up in Central Paris
(London Evening Standard-UK) Ian Sparks - A female suicide bomber plotted to blow herself up in a "busy part of Paris" on Thursday, French spy agencies revealed to RTL radio on Monday. Intelligence services uncovered and thwarted the threat. French Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux said security had been stepped up around Jewish institutions in Paris after the arrest of a terrorist who planned to bomb an Israel Defense Forces fundraising event. He said there had been 47 physical attacks against Jewish institutions in France this year, and another 190 threats.
