3 Arrested In France On Suspicion Of Plotting Attack

Three people have been arrested in France on suspicion of plotting a terrorism attack, police sources say.
French media say a counter-terrorism operation is under way at the home of one of the suspects, in the central city of Clermont-Ferrand.
The other two arrests were reportedly in Marseille and in the Paris region.
France is on high alert after a series of deadly attacks in recent years by militants claiming to be from the Islamic State group.
Few details of Tuesday’s arrests are yet known.
One source told Reuters news agency that the suspects were arrested “as part of a preliminary investigation started in January on suspicion of leaving for Syria or committing an act in France”.
