By John Ingham PUBLISHED: 20:23, Tue, Jul 7, 2015 | UPDATED: 20:34, Tue, Jul 7, 2015 dynamite GETTYExplosives have been stolen from the French army base Plastic explosives, 180 detonators and 40 grenades were taken from the base at Miramas near Marseille. Details emerged on the 10th anniversary of London’s 7/7 terror attacks when four Islamic suicide bombers murdered 52 civilians on the Tube network and on a bus. The weekend raid on the French base was only spotted on Monday. It took place despite heightened security following a spate of terrorist attacks in France. Last month an extremist beheaded his boss and tried to blow up a gas plant near Lyon. In January extremists murdered 17 people in Paris at the offices of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and at a Jewish foodstore. The Miramas site serves as a logistical base for the French army’s operations overseas. The country's defence ministry has ordered a review of the army’s military supplies and the protection of ammunition storage units.

These are dangerous munitions. Frederic Vigouroux, mayor of Miramas A separate inquiry is being carried out by the French police. Authorities are understood to be treating the raid as the work of criminals but there are fears they could sell the explosives and detonators to terrorists. Miramas Mayor Frederic Vigouroux said that nine storehouses were affected in the theft. “It wasn’t cotton candy that was stolen,” he said. “These are dangerous munitions.” Colonel Gilles Jaron, a spokesman for French military, said about 160 civilians and soldiers work on the site daily, and guards with sniffer dogs patrol the area.
