18.35 More on what the gunman told French TV from Henry Samuel:
Cherif Kouachi told BFMTV that he had been funded by a network loyal to Anwar al-Awlaki, the former American-born leader of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula who was killed by a drone strike in 2011 in Yemen.
Coulibaly swore allegiance to Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, and told BFMV the terrorist attacks were “synchronised”.
