(VOVworld) – French police said on Saturday that three terrorist teams carried out the highly coordinated attacks in Paris that left 129 people dead and more than 350 people injured. One of the suicide bombers in the attacks was identified as 29-year-old French Ismael Omar Mostefai.

The investigation has also yielded the identity of a French radical among the killers, one person with a Syrian passport and a tip that led Belgian authorities to arrest three people linked to the massacres.
Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said several terrorists, wearing identical suicide vests, died during the attacks late Friday, including one killed by French police and two who detonated their vest as security forces closed in.
