Nearly two-thirds of Britons support putting British troops on the ground to fight IS following the attacks on Paris last week, according to a poll.
A similar number also support air strikes against Syria, according to the poll run by ComRes for the Daily Mail.
Unlike France and the United States, Britain currently only undertakes air strikes against IS in Iraq. A motion by the British government to bomb Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's forces in Syria in August 2013 following deadly chemical weapons attacks was defeated in the British parliament.
French war planes have destroyed 35 IS targets in Syria during a series of air strikes in response to last week's terror attacks in Paris that killed 129 people, the country's military say.
Around 60 bombs have been dropped at six sites that target IS's training sites and command centers, according to French military spokesman Col. Gilles Jaron.
The aim of the strikes was to weaken IS and its ability to organize, Jaron said.
The activist group Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently (RBSS) tweeted photos yesterday of several IS sites in Raqqa they said were hit by the French strikes. RBSS claimed that the sites included an IS weapons cache, a training base and a security headquarters.
Chilling video footage has emerged showing the instant a gunman attacked a cafe, spraying it with bullets during last week's coordinated attacks that killed 129 people in Paris.
The four-minute video shows terrified people trying to find cover as the gunman shoots through glass windows and doors.
A number of French news sites are posting profiles of Hasna Aitboulahcen, the French-Moroccan woman French media has named as the suicide bomber who blew herself up during yesterday's police raid on an apartment block in a northern Paris suburb.
However, L'Express reports that the Paris prosecutor refused to confirm this morning whether Aitboulahcen was the suicide bomber, saying that identification of the suicide bomber's remains is still ongoing.
If Aitboulahcen is formally identified as the woman who blew herself up, she will be the first ever female suicide bomber in France.
According to L'Express, Aitboulahcen was born in August 1989 in Clichy-la-Garenne in the northwest suburbs of Paris. She is reportedly the cousin of the suspected Paris attacks mastermind, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, though this has not been confirmed.
L'Express also noted that a Facebook page presumed to have belonged to Aitboulahcen included photos of the young woman holding weapons. Aitboulahcen's presumed Facebook page reportedly also included messages glorifying Hayat Boumeddiene, the wife of Amedy Coulibaly, the hostage-taker and gunman in the Hypercacher kosher supermarket in Paris in January.
Aitboulahcen had wanted to go to Syria like Boumedienne, according to her Facebook page.
The 26-year-old had also run a construction company, Beko Construction, until December 2013, coincidentally -- as L'Express notes -- the time when Abaaoud is thought to have gone to Syria.
Reuters has a few more details about the reports that Belgian police have carried out a series of raids today in Brussels linked to last week's attacks in Paris.
One raid was carried out in the Brussels district of Molenbeek and another in the neighboring district of Jette, a police source said, but would not say whether any arrests were made.
A government source would not comment on reports that the raids were linked to Bilal Hadfi, one of the Paris suicide bombers who had been based in Belgium.
The authorities in Belgium have launched six raids in the Brussels region linked to Bilal Hadfi, AP is reporting.
Hadfi is believed to have detonated a suicide bomb outside the Stade de France in Paris last week.
A 20-year-old French national who lived in Neder-over-Hembeek in Belgium, Hadfi was described as being until recently a "typical teenager who was obsessed with football."
Hadfi started to become radicalized, however, and after the attacks on Charlie Hebdo in January "there was a week of school left during which he told his classmates he was going to Syria," one of his former teachers said.
A doctor and former columnist at the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine who treated victims of the Paris attacks last week has said people should rally together in the aftermath of the tragedy.
Patrick Pelloux was one of the first emergency responders at the Stade de France on November 13. Just a few months earlier in January, Pelloux had given his colleagues at Charlie Hebdo emergency treatment after two gunmen opened fire on them, he told Australia's SBS News.
After the Charlie Hebdo attacks, in which 12 people were killed, emergency responders had "read a lot of military medical literature."
Pelloux said IS had "attacked the city of lights, the city that carries all the roots of multiculturalism, [and the city that] accepts tolerance, love, generosity."
The FBI and New York police are aware of an IS video suggesting America's most populous city is a potential target of attacks such as those in Paris, but do not consider there to be any "credible or specific threat," Mayor Bill de Blasio has said, according to Reuters.
The IS video shows Times Square and Herald Square and a suicide bomber holding what appears to be a trigger. The video also shows scenes from Paris.
The New York footage appeared in a previous IS video produced in April, suggesting that the new video was produced in haste to maximize propaganda opportunities following the Paris attacks.
The UK Foreign Office has advised British schools against trips to France until after November 22.
The advice is in line with guidelines issued by the French Ministry of Education, which has said foreign schools should avoid traveling to France during this time.
"As part of the national state of emergency, the French ministry of education has cancelled all school trips within France by French schools until [after] Sunday," the Foreign Office said.
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls has warned of the danger of an attack in France using "chemical or biological weapons," AFP reports.
"We must not rule anything out," Valls told lawmakers during a debate on extending a state of emergency following last week's attacks in Paris.
