GSPC reestablishes operations cells in France
After a decade, Al Qaida's leading ally has re-established operational cells in France.The Salafist Brigade for Combat and Call has set up cells in France as part of an effort to renew major insurgency attacks. Officials said the cells were formed in North African emigrant communities in France. On Monday, officials said nine suspected Salafist operatives were detained in Paris and Normandy. The operatives were charged with terrorist offenses, including plans to attack a range of targets in France. "They were believed to have established a network of logistic cells that would have enabled the execution of simultaneous attacks in France," a French security source said.
