Kosher Market Hostages

French police are questioning 10 people on suspicion of supplying weapons to a terrorist who attacked a Jewish deli in Paris in January 2015, killing four Jewish hostages, police sources said on Wednesday.

The four people killed Friday at a Jewish supermarket in Paris were "likely" killed by the gunman at the start of the hostage-taking, the prosecutor leading the investigation said.

Amedy Coulibaly, a gunman killed by police on Friday after seizing a Jewish supermarket in Paris, told BFMTV station he had "co-ordinated" with the Charlie Hebdo killers and was a member of the Islamic State group.

A police official on the scene of the standoff between two armed brothers suspected in the massacre at the Charlie Hebdo newsroom says the suspects are dead, and their hostage has been freed.

French security forces struggled with two rapidly developing hostage-taking situations Friday, one northeast of Paris where two terror suspects were holed up with a hostage in a printing plant and the other an attack on a kosher market in Paris.
