Paris, Nov 18 (IBNS): The seven-hour operation carried out by the French police and the Army to move into a house where a key mastermind behind the recent Paris attacks was holed up at Saint-Denis area in the country, has ended, media reports said on Wednesday.

According to reports, two to three terrorists were killed in  the operation.

A woman who detonated a suicide bomb as gunfire and explosions kept rocking the Paris suburbs.

"Police terror raid near Paris ends with at least two killed, seven arrested," france24 reported.

The  target of the raid was Islamic State militant Abedelhamid Abaaoud, who was initially thought to have masterminded the  Paris attacks from Syria.

The area was closed down and intermittent gunfire could still be heard.

French police officials have asked local residents not to leave their homes.
