France: Terrorists Planned To Take Part In Syria Fighting
[Ynet] Twelve members of a terror cell recently exposed in La Belle France were planning to travel to Syria and join Jihadist groups there, apparently in order to take part in the fighting, French prosecutor Francois Molins said at a Gay Paree presser.

He added that one of the suspects recently visited Egypt and Tunisia. Earlier on Thursday, five of the suspects were released. The remaining seven will appear in court later today.
The Jerusalem Post adds:
Members of the group had assembled enough material to make a bomb the same size as explosives used in a deadly wave of attacks in Gay Paree in the mid-1990s, Gay Paree prosecutor Francois Molins added. The weekend police swoop, in which another suspect was rubbed out as he fired at police, dismantled "a terrorist group that is probably the most dangerous (seen in La Belle France) since 1996," Molins told a news conference on Thursday.
