French police have stormed two hostage sites in Paris and north of the city, with the hostage takers reported dead.
Explosions were heard at a warehouse in Dammartin-en-Goele, where two suspects in the Charlie Hebdo magazine shootings had been holding one hostage.
Explosions and gunfire could also be heard at a supermarket in eastern Paris, at Porte de Vincennes, where several hostages were held.
Reports suggest a gunman there was linked to the Charlie Hebdo suspects.
After the operation started, several hostages could be seen leaving the supermarket.
Police told French media that four hostages in the supermarket had been killed prior to security forces storming the site.
