PARIS (AA) - At least 11 people have been arrested on Tuesday in a major police raid on the headquarters of a Shia Islamic association and the homes of its leaders in northern France, local media reported.
The operation against the Zahra Center France in Grande-Synthe, a suburb of the port city of Dunkirk, was launched as part of "prevention of terrorism" measures, regional authorities said in a statement.
