None

French authorities say they thwarted a jihadi attack last week in an area near the central French city Orleans.

 

Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said Tuesday on a visit near Toulouse that the planned attack targeted "soldiers, police and representatives of the state," and that two French citizens aged 20 and 24 were arrested on Dec. 19.
