(LBC) French police have foiled two separate terror plots targeting this summer’s Olympic Games in Paris, the government said.
France’s interior minister, Gérald Darmanin, said that police in Paris had carried out “several arrests” linked to two separate plots.
It comes ahead of both the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, which kick off on July 24, and the nation’s Bastille Day celebrations, which take place on July 14.
France’s security has remained at its highest threat level since March, when Islamic State terrorists targeted a Russian concert hall, killing 145.
