BREAKING NEWS - New Paris hostage terror: Gunman claiming to be armed with grenades and Kalashnikov takes two people captive in post office

A gunman claiming to be armed with a Kalashnikov and grenades has taken two people hostage at post office in a Paris suburb.

Police have surrounded the building in Colombes, around seven miles from the centre of the French capital. A helicopter was flying overhead.

It is not known if the siege is linked to last week's terror attacks.

It comes as Belgian authorities raided an Islamist cell planning attacks against police as dozens of people were arrested in sweeps across Europe, keeping the continent on alert one week after the Paris massacres.

Two suspected jihadists were shot dead in a police raid in the eastern Belgian town of Verviers last night night.

French police separately detained 12 people in the suburbs of Paris in connection with last week's attacks on the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine, a Jewish supermarket and a policewoman, in which 17 people were killed.

Hundreds of German police meanwhile raided alleged Islamist sites in Berlin, arresting two men suspected of being part of a group planning to carry out an attack in Syria.

The raids highlighted fears about young Europeans travelling to fight with the Islamic State and Al Qaeda-linked groups in the Middle East before returning to carry out attacks on western targets.
