Meanwhile, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls told the French National Assembly on Wednesday that Paris is seeking to form an international coalition to battle the Islamic State (IS) terror militia. “Terrorism has struck countries in the region; Israel, of course, but also other countries in the Middle East,” he said. “The first victims of terrorism are the Muslims themselves.
