French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said their leader was in contact with known French jihadists who are currently in prison. The attackers had planned to strike in January 2016 and were targeting a senior military official in the south of France. The four were aged between 16 and 23 and arrested in different places around France, and one had served in the French military, Mr Cazeneuve said. Charlie Hebdo vigil EPA A vigil after the Charlie Hebdo Shootings The news comes after the Paris terror attacks which left 20 people dead in January this year. It began when brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi entered the offices of Paris-based satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and killed 12. During a three-day reign of terror a policewoman was also shot dead and five people were killed in a siege at a Jewish supermarket. Just minutes before the hostage situation at Hypercacher ended when armed police stormed the building killing the perpetrator, the Kouachi brothers were also shot dead by officers at a seperate location. Woman being arrested in Lyon Lyon A woman being arrested in connection with the Lyon terror attack Last month Yassin Sali, 35, attacked a gas factory near the city of Lyon by ramming his car into an area containing flammable liquids. Sali's boss at a delivery firm was found beheaded along with flags displaying Islamist writings. Sali had tied Herve Cornara's head to a fence in the suburb of Saint-Quentin-Fallavier. Earlier this week armed criminals held up a branch of Primark in the northern Parisian suburb of Villeneuve-la-Garenne. It is still not clear whether it was a terrorism related incident.
