The
woman who was thought to have blown herself up in the Saint Denis gun
siege was actually killed when another member of the Islamic cell let
off a bomb, according to a source within the French police.
Hasna
Ait Boulahcen, 26, was believed to have become Europe's first female
suicide bomber when she let off her explosive vest at a flat in the
suburb of Paris during a police raid on Wednesday morning.
But
a police source has now revealed she is believed to have died because
another member of her terrorist cell let off a bomb as armed officers
attempted to storm the third floor property.

The
French Ministry today released photos of the raid in Saint Denis on
November 18th, which left Adelhamid Abaaoud, the so-called mastermind of
the Paris attacks dead. His French born cousin Ait Boulahcen died when a
third person detonated a suicide bomb French born Ait Boulahcen is the
cousin of the mastermind of the Paris terror attacks, Belgian-born
Abdelhamid Abaaoud.
'Hasna
Ait Boulahcen, cousin of the suspected mastermind of the Paris attack,
whose body was found in the rubble of the apartment in Saint Denis
raided by police, was not killed in a suicide bombing,' the police
source explained.
Three
people died in the assault - the Paris attack mastermind Abdelhamid
Abaaoud, his cousin Hasna Ait Boulahcen and a man who has not yet been
identified.
Investigators
believe that the third person, the unnamed man, let off his own suicide
bomb which caused a massive explosion, not Ait Boulahcen as previously
thought.
Police
officers have described how Ait Boulahcen had called out to them
shortly before the explosion, crying: 'Help me, help me.'
Armed officers believed she had called out to lure them into a trap.
Asked
to explain the misidentification, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins
said: 'All I can tell you is that the kamikaze [suicide bomber] was not
Hasna.'
Colleagues
of Mr Molins said 'more human parts', a handbag and Ait Boulahcen's
French passport were also found in the rubble of the Saint Denis
apartment block.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manuel Valls said the death toll of the deadly Paris attacks on Friday had risen by one to 130.
He
made the announcement in a speech to the French Senate which is
expected to approve a three-month extension to France's state of
emergency.
The Virgin founder also criticised Republican governors
Branson called Isis 'a gang of murderous thugs' Mark Metcalfe/Getty ImagesSir Richard Branson has urged people not to blame the Muslim community for the Paris attacks.
Writing in a blog on Virgin’s website,
the entrepreneur said he was “frustrated” by the way some have passed
judgement “on entire populations, based on the actions of a radical
few.”

He compared those blaming Muslims for the Paris attacks to blaming “all Americans for the past actions of the Ku Klux Klan”.
The 65-year-old also criticised Republican governors who sought to
block Syrian refugees entering the country in the wake of last week’s
massacre.
“These positions fuel a collective paranoia that tends to be more
interested in confirming existing biases rather than the truth.”
Calling Isis a “gang of murderous thugs pretending to act in the name
of faith”, Sir Richard advocated looking at the causes of extremist
violent movements.
“More often than not, weak governance, corruption, poor economic
conditions came long before things turned bad. Extremism became an
outlet, not a source.”
However, the Virgin founder praised the “sensible humanity” offered by 18 mayors who pledged to allow refugees settlement.

anti-immigrant rhetoric” which was taking place during the refugee

Canada withdrew on Monday its appeal to the high court of a decision
that struck down a popular ban on the niqab and swayed the outcome of
recent legislative elections.
Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould said she
has notified the Supreme Court that the government has “discontinued
its application for leave in the case.”
“Canada’s diversity is among its greatest
strengths, and today we have ensured that successful citizenship
candidates continue to be included in the Canadian family. We are a
strong and united country because of, not in spite of, our differences,”
she said in a joint statement with Immigration Minister John McCallum.
A lower court ruling in support of a Muslim
woman’s right to wear the veil, which covers all of her face except the
eyes, had become a hot-button issue four weeks before last month’s
legislative elections.
The prohibition against newcomers wearing the
veil during citizenship ceremonies had been introduced by the previous
Tory administration in 2011. But it was quashed by a lower court in
September.
The court battle at the center of the
controversy was brought by Toronto-area resident Zunera Ishaq, who
argued successfully that the ban violated her religious freedoms under
Canada’s rights charter.
Originally from Pakistan, Ishaq arrived in
Canada in 2008 and passed her citizenship test in 2013. But she refused
to participate in the oath-reciting ceremony because she did not want to
do it with her face uncovered.
She was sworn in as a Canadian citizen 10 days before the October 19 election, in time to vote.
Besides the Lebanese mastermind, authorities in Kuwait arrested three Syrians, an Egyptian and a Kuwaiti [Kuwait TV screenshot]Kuwaiti
security authorities have busted an international cell that was sending
air defence systems and funds to the Islamic State of Iraq and the
Levant (ISIL) group, the interior ministry said.
The cell's chief, a Lebanese man who was not named, confessed that he
raised funds and provided logistical support for the group, which
carried out deadly attacks in Lebanon and France last week, the ministry
said on Thursday.
He acted as coordinator for the ISIL in Kuwait and arranged arms
deals and FN6 portable air defence systems from Ukraine, which were
shipped to ISIL in Syria through Turkey.
The ministry did not provide details about the size of the arms deals. More arrests
Besides the Lebanese mastermind, authorities arrested three Syrians,
an Egyptian and a Kuwaiti and said four other members of the cell were
outside Kuwait - two Syrians and two Australians of Lebanese origin.
Several suspected ISIL members and sympathisers were tried in the
Gulf emirate for a suicide bombing in June claimed by the group.
A court sentenced seven men to death and jailed eight others to between two and 15 years for assisting the Saudi bomber.
An appeals court is to issue its verdict in the case on December 13.
Earlier this month, the lower court sentenced five men to 10 years in jail each for raising funds for ISIL.
They were charged with raising about 400,000 Kuwaiti dinars ($1.3m)
and sending it to ISIL, which has seized control of large parts of Syria
and Iraq and carried out attacks throughout the Middle East.
Over the past year, Kuwaiti courts have issued several rulings against ISIL supporters.]
According to the UNHCR, 84 percent of refugees come from Syria, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Somalia and Iraq [Djordje Savic/EPA] Some
Balkan countries are screening refugees at borders, allowing those who
can prove they are fleeing conflict in the Middle East and Afghanistan
to travel on, but turning back some from Africa and Asia, witnesses
said.
The overnight move, which prioritised refugees from Syria,
Afghanistan and Iraq, left hundreds of people stranded at border
crossings on Thursday.
"It is not acceptable that people who want to seek asylum are being
segregated by nationalities. The right to ask for asylum is universal
and cannot be connected to certain nationalities," said Stephane
Moissaing, MSF head of mission in Serbia.
"We’re extremely worried about the latest developments and fear that
people will be stranded without any assistance, shelter and food, just
as winter sets in. We're seeing people who are desperate because they
don't have any information on where to go or what they should do next."
In Serbia, from Wednesday evening, Serbian border police stopped
people crossing from Macedonia if they did not have papers stating that
they were Syrians, Afghans or Iraqis.
In the Serbian border town of Presevo, MSF witnesses said they saw
women from Somalia and two from Afghanistan who did not have papers -
one of whom was pregnant - camped outside the registration centre after
being sent away. RELATED: Europe anti-refugee rhetoric swells after Paris attacks
On Serbia's frontier with European Union-member Croatia, about 400
people were denied access to a train and were halted by Croatian police
as they tried to cross the border through fields. "Macedonia, Serbia and Croatia are now stopping all who cannot
identify themselves as refugees coming from these three countries
affected by violence," said Melita Sunjic, a spokeswoman for the UN
refugee agency UNHCR.
Fears refugees will face backlash after Paris attacks intensify
Other refugees were stuck in no-man's land between Macedonia and
Greece, where Macedonia closed off access to all refugees regardless of
nationality until a deal could be reached with Greece on how to filter
them, Reuters reported.
Slovenian police announced on Wednesday that they would return those
considered to be "clearly economic migrants and not refugees" to Croatia
if they had entered the country from there, the STA news agency
reported. Croatian Interior Minister Ranko Ostojic, however, called the
plan "unacceptable" on Thursday.
"The Balkan route is only open for refugees from Syria, Afghanistan
and Iraq. Others are treated as illegal immigrants and sent back," said ‘Are You Syrious’, a group aimed at keeping refugees informed, in a recent Facebook post. 'Many are fleeing terrorism'
The move comes amid fears prompted by the Paris attacks that among
the hundreds of thousands of refugees trying to escape war and
persecution could be people planning attacks in Europe.
Rights groups have warned against conflating refugees with violent attackers.
"Many [refugees] are fleeing extremism and terrorism – from
the very people associated with the Paris attacks," said UNHCR
spokesperson Melissa Fleming. "A world that welcomes Syrians can help
defeat extremism. But a world that rejects Syrians, and especially
Muslim refugees, will just feed into their propaganda."
Earlier in the week, far right groups across Europe seized on the reports, calling for borders to be sealed.
Unprecedented numbers of refugees have travelled to Europe in 2015.
By mid November, Human Rights Watch said, more than 800,000 had reached
Italy and Greece, with smaller numbers arriving in Spain and Malta.
According to the UNHCR, 84 percent have come from Syria, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Somalia and Iraq. Norway reacts
Elsewhere on Thursday, Norway's political parties agreed that the
country will tighten its asylum policy to dissuade refugees from coming,
AFP reported. Since the beginning of the year, 29,000 people have sought
asylum in the country of 5.2 million, including 2,500 people in the past
week alone. The ruling parties, the Conservatives and the anti-immigration
populist Progress Party, reached an agreement with their centrist allies
and the Labour opposition, giving them a broad parliamentary majority
to limit the number of refugees coming to the Scandinavian country. Under the deal, the government will reduce asylum seekers'
social benefits, putting them on a par with levels in neighbouring
Nordic countries to make Norway less attractive, and speed up the
processing of some cases and the expulsion of rejected asylum seekers. It will also limit access to permanent residency, and make it harder to qualify for family reunifications.

According
to a new report, Islamophobic attacks against the Muslim community in
the UK are on the rise [Peter Dench/Getty Images] London, United Kingdom -
British government policies are fuelling a worsening "environment of
hate" in which abuse, discrimination, and even the threat of violent
assault have become the "normal experience and expectation" for Muslims
living in the UK, according to the conclusions of a new report.
The study into the day-to-day experiences of British Muslims, carried
out by the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC), found a sharp rise
in the number of people reporting verbal abuse and an increase in the
number of physical attacks since the survey was last undertaken in 2010.
Two-thirds of the 1,800 people polled said they had been subjected to
verbal abuse, up from 40 percent in 2010, while 82 percent said they
had witnessed Islamophobia being directed at someone else, up from 50
percent. Reported cases of physical assault rose from 14 percent in
2010, to nearly 18 percent.
Security increased at UK mosques due to threats
"Muslims in the UK feel targeted by media and political institutions,
which in their understanding contribute heavily towards a deteriorating
climate of fear, a rise in far-right groups and a rise of anti-Muslim
racism... Most Muslims now feel they are hated," the report says.
It cites examples of individual cases of discrimination, such as a
Kuwaiti tourist who was detained and questioned under terrorism
legislation for taking a 'selfie' of himself outside a shopping centre,
and a woman working with children with autism who was told she could not
wear a hijab because parents would not feel safe leaving their children
with her. 'A police state in all but name'
But the report also highlights widespread opposition to government
policies such as the controversial Prevent counter-extremism strategy
and the new Counter-Terrorism and Security Act, which the authors say
have "created a police state in all but name", as well as growing
sensitivity to anti-Muslim rhetoric used by politicians and in the
media.
While just 34 percent believed in 2010 that government policies were
having a negative impact on Muslim communities, that figure has now
risen to 60 percent. Ninety-four percent also said they had encountered
negative stereotypes of Muslims in the media, and 85 percent said they
had heard politicians using Islamophobic language.
"It feels as if we have really gone over a tipping point and that is
what is so worrying," Arzu Merali, one of the authors of the report,
told Al Jazeera.
"We are seeing that the escalation of Prevent has been instrumental
in this, and people feel in general that the security agenda is fuelling
that. In the past people blamed the media, but now we're seeing a shift
towards people saying it is about the government and its institutions
as well."
The Prevent strategy,
which was set up in the aftermath of the 2005 London bombings with the
aim of tackling Islamic extremism, has long been a source of resentment
among many British Muslims, with critics complaining that it sows
mistrust of Muslims and subjects them to discriminatory levels of
surveillance and harassment.
But under the current government, Prevent has been rolled out into
schools, hospitals and other public sector institutions, with teachers,
doctors and even childcare providers now required by law to monitor and
report children, patients and colleagues who they suspect of holding
extremist views, and to promote so-called "British values". RELATED: Fish and chips, Freddie Mercury, and UK childcare The 'backbone' of Islamophobia
The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act, which became law earlier this
year, has also bolstered the powers of the police and security services
to curtail the freedoms of those deemed to be extremists.
In a series of high-profile speeches, David Cameron, the British
prime minister, has repeatedly called on Muslim communities to do more
to tackle extremism, even suggesting earlier this year that obeying the
law was now no longer enough.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to
our citizens 'As long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone,'" Cameron said in May. "This government will conclusively turn the page on this failed approach."
But, speaking at an event to launch the IHRC's report on Tuesday,
David Miller, a professor of sociology at the University of Bath, said
that government counterterrorism policies were the "backbone" of
Islamophobia in the UK, and cited cases of children whose bank accounts had been shut down because their parents were associated with Muslim organisations or charities.
"The counterterrorism apparatus is the key element in disadvantaging
Muslims. We should talk about people being attacked on buses or refused
service in shops, but what stands behind all that is government
counterterrorism policy," said Miller.
There has undoubtedly been a growth in feeling against Muslims in
recent times. Islamophobia is growing and Muslims are worried. It is one
of the big concerns.
Miqdaad Versi, Muslim Council of Britain
"When we are talking about the bank accounts of Muslim children being
closed down, that is a real line in the sand. When you start to do
that, you are starting to move towards marginalising a whole community." A 'constant threat'
While the IHRC
report paints a bleak picture, other Muslim organisations say they share
its concerns about rising Islamophobia and the direction of government
policy, and its conclusions appear to be borne out by other data and
research.
Last month, Tell MAMA, an organisation monitoring anti-Muslim hate
crime, published its own report entitled "We Fear For Our Lives" which
concluded that some Muslims had adopted a "siege mentality" because of a
"constant threat of anti-Muslim hate".
In one reported incident, a woman working as a midwife in a hospital
described how she had been abused by a woman giving birth: "When she saw
me with my hijab she swore at me. She shouted at me: 'I don't want my
baby to see your terrorist face. I don't want my child to come into this
world and see someone like you, a terrorist.'"
Figures released over recent months by the Metropolitan Police also
indicate a sharp upward trend in the number of reported hate crimes
against Muslims in London, with 818 incidents recorded in the year up to
September 2015, compared to 499 in the previous 12 months; a 64 percent
rise.
"It is important to recognise that the UK is a tolerant and
respectful place in general," Miqdaad Versi, the assistant general
secretary of the Muslim Council of Britain, told Al Jazeera.

A Home Office spokesperson said that the government was "committed to
combating all forms of hate crime and has done more than any other to
counter anti-Muslim hatred", and cited a new requirement for police
forces to record anti-Muslim hate crimes as a specific category in crime
statistics for the first time.
"Prevent is about protecting those who might be vulnerable to the
poisonous and pernicious influence of radicalisation," the spokesperson
said.
"We must work with the overwhelming majority of Muslims who abhor the
twisted narrative that has seduced some of our people. We must continue
to celebrate Islam as a great world religion of peace."
Yet a working group on anti-Muslim hatred, set up by the government
in 2012, appears to have dwindled into irrelevance, with one academic,
who resigned from the group last month, complaining that he had spent
three years "pushing against an extremely cold and closed door".
"The basic message appeared to be that the government was simply not
that interested in anti-Muslim hatred. In fact, to my knowledge, the
government has still not undertaken any research into what causes
Islamophobia and what might be done about it," said Matthew Goodwin, a
professor of politics at the University of Kent.
"We are today no closer to understanding and tackling anti-Muslim
hatred. If anything, it feels as though we have gone backwards."
ISIL posts 'bomb' photo alleging it downed airlinerGroup claims Norwegian and Chinese hostages killed, and explosives hidden in a soda can downed Russian plane.
ISIL claimed it used a Schweppes soda can containing explosives to down the Russian plane [Dabiq magazine]
The
Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group has claimed it killed
one Norwegian and one Chinese captive, and that it downed the Russian
airliner over Egypt with explosives hidden in a soda can.
China's foreign ministry said on Thursday it would "bring to justice"
those responsible for executing the Chinese national, confirming the
man's identity as Fan Jinghui for the first time.
ISIL had two months ago demanded a ransom for the release of the men.
The announcements came in the latest issue of the group's
English-language magazine Dabiq on Wednesday, which contained a page
that appeared to show the bodies of the two captives. RELATED: Enemy of Enemies - The Rise of ISIL
A caption on the image said: "Executed after being abandoned by kafir nations and organisations."
''Kafir" is the Arabic word for infidel.
The Norwegian man was identified as Ole Johan Grimsgaard-Ofstad, 48,
from Oslo. Fan Jinghui, 50, was a freelance consultant from Beijing.
The group did not say when or where the two were captured. 'Despicable act'
Norway said it feared that Grimsgaard-Ofstad was killed by ISIL in
what Prime Minister Erna Solberg said was "a despicable, brutal act".
Chinese media published the photo of Fan Jinghui [sina.cn]
"We still have to check if the published image is authentic, our
experts are doing that now, but so far there is no reason to doubt that
it is not authentic," Solberg said at a televised press conference in
Oslo.
In the same magazine, ISIL also published a photo of what it said was
the bomb that brought down the Russian airliner over Egypt's Sinai
Peninsula last month, killing all 224 people on board.
In the issue - titled "Just Terror" - and circulated on social media,
the group showed a Schweppes Gold soda can it said contained
explosives.
Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday
that Russian security services would do their utmost to establish and
catch the culprits of the attack on the Russian passenger plane.
"It is acknowledged that it is a terrorist act and I want to recall
that the president [Vladimir Putin] gave an instruction to all Russian
law enforcement agencies without any statute of limitations to find
those who were behind the preparations of staging this terrorist
attack," he said. West was first target
ISIL, which controls large areas of Iraq and Syria and has a powerful
affiliate in the Sinai region, said it targeted the plane because of
Moscow's air strikes against it in Syria.
It said it had originally wanted to bring down a Western plane
belonging to a member of the US-led coalition but changed its plan when
the Russian air campaign began.
"The divided Crusaders of the East and West thought themselves safe
in their jets as they cowardly bombarded the Muslims of the Caliphate,"
the Dabiq magazine said in reference to Russia and the West.
"And so revenge was exacted upon those who felt safe in the cockpits," it added.
"This was to show the Russians and whoever allies with them that they
will have no safety in the lands and airspace of the Muslims," ISIL
said in the magazine, calling the passengers "crusaders".

The number of boys being abused increased by 4.3 percent in the first half of 2015 [Muhammed Muheisen/AP Photo/file] The
number of young boys being sexually abused in Pakistan has increased
this year, according to a new report, with more boys being targeted than
girls.
The total number increased by 4.3 percent in the first half of 2015
compared to the same period last year, said the study, which was
published on Wedndesday by Sahil, an NGO fighting child sex abuse in
Pakistan.
The report said 178 boys aged six to 10 were abused, compared to 150 girls in the same age range.
The report, however, showed a decline of 221 in overall abuse cases
involving children of all ages, with roughly nine children a day
sexually abused over the first six months of 2015. The figure for the
first six months of 2015 was 1,565 compared with 1,786 for the same
period last year.
The spokesperson of Sahil, Mumtaz Gohar, told Al Jazeera that young boys are often easy targets.
"Young boys are exposed to such crimes because they play in the
streets and spend more time outdoors as compared to young girls," he
said. Related: Pakistan police officers held in child-abuse probe
The number of female perpetrators of assaults has also increased,
with the report saying that 102 cases of child sex abuse from January to
June of this year involved "female abettors" - five times as many as
the same period in 2014.
Last year Sahil recorded more than 3,500 registered cases in total,
with a spokesman saying the true figure could be as high as 10,000.
"We try our best to counsel those children who are sexually abused at
a very young age," Gohar told Al Jazeera. "We also assign lawyers to
fight these cases and to make sure the culprits are punished."
Earlier this month, Pakistan took a step towards punishing those
guilty of abusing young girls with life imprisonment - or even the death
penalty - after an influential parliamentary committee voted to amend
current laws.
But the amendment only appears to address the sexual abuse of girls aged under 14, not boys.
In August, the biggest child abuse case in Pakistan's history was
uncovered, involving nearly 300 children who lawyers said were filmed
while abused and their parents subsequently blackmailed.
