French warplanes have carried out strikes on the Syrian city of Raqqa, a stronghold of IslamicStete militants. The mission comes two days after the deadly attacks in Paris which Islamic Statesays it was behind. Hugh Schofield sent this reports from Paris. Twelve planes took part in theattack operating efforts, French bases in Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. The defenseministry said the targets had been identified in earlier reconnaissance flights and the attackcarried out in coordination with the Americans. President Hollande had described Friday'sattacks in Paris as an act of war and he promised that France's reaction would be pitiless.

News tonight well could be a hugelyembarrassing episode for the French police. In the hours after the attacks here in Paris, theystopped a car heading towards the Belgium border. They questioned certainly one man. Theremay have been two others in the vehicle. But they questioned him for some period and thenthey examined his ID and then they let him go. He now is the focus of the manhunt. He now isthe most wanted man in France. And it turns out that his brother was one of the suicidebombers in the attacks here. And of course this now as I said, is hugely embarrassing episodefor the French police.

This timethe delivery was by road and according to one source, was roughly the same quantity aspreviously. Last time it amounted to around 50 tons of ammunition and rocket-propelledgrenades.
