Paris, AFP --Two suspected jihadists were killed, including a woman who blew herself up, in a shootout Wednesday in north Paris with police hunting the mastermind of last week's attacks on the French capital, sources said.
As troops patrolled the streets, heavily-armed police swapped gunfire with people holed up in an apartment in the suburb of Saint-Denis, police sources said.
Two people in the apartment were killed, including a woman who blew herself up, and a third was still inside, and at least three police were injured, they said. Five arrests were made.
The operation aimed at the suspected mastermind of Friday's deadly attacks in Paris, Belgian Abdelhamid Abaaoud, who has been active with the Islamic State group in Syria, the source said.
The raid began before dawn, at around 4.30am (10.30am Bangkok time), on an apartment at the crossroads of Rue de la Republique and Rue Corbillon. Police operations were still underway seven hours later (Police have just announced at 18:00 Bangkok time that they have now ended).
Sources told the AFP news agency that the area was being secured, while the newspaper Le Figaro reported that apartments in the building were being searched.
In the early morning, several rounds of heavy gunfire and explosions were reported by eyewitnesses and journalists at the scene.
