A bomb plot that French police described as an imminent terror attack was reportedly foiled Friday morning in the southern city Montpellier. Home-made explosives that shared characteristics with those used in the Paris attacks of November 2015 were discovered in an anti-terror raid of an apartment in the city, according to the BBC. Three men and a 16-year-old girl, who was reported to have made jihadist declarations online, were arrested, according to the report. A France 24 report cited an anonymous police source as having said one of the suspects was believed to be plotting a suicide attack.
