Paris, Nov 18 (IBNS): The seven-hour operation carried out by the French police and the Army to move into a house where a key mastermind behind the recent Paris attacks was holed up at Saint-Denis area in the country, has ended, media reports said on Wednesday.

According to reports, two to three terrorists were killed in  the operation.

A woman who detonated a suicide bomb as gunfire and explosions kept rocking the Paris suburbs.

"Police terror raid near Paris ends with at least two killed, seven arrested," france24 reported.
