Paris Attack: 23 People In Custody, 104 Under House Arrest, Weapons Seized - CNN by jcflex(m): 11:46am On Nov 16, 2015
(CNN)Investigations into the series of terrorist attacks that killed more than 120 people in Paris are moving forward, with people taken into custody and two of the gun-wielding suicide bombers identified.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the massacres in a statement. In response, France has carried out air strikes on targets in the militant organization's stronghold in Raqqa, Syria.

Here is what we know so far from officials and local news reports:

The latest

-- State of Emergency remains -- 1,500 troops deployed to secure "particularly strategic" locations in France.

-- More than 150 police anti-terror raids conducted in cities across the country.

-- A fourth attacker has been identified from the Bataclan massacre as Samy Amimour, 28, the Paris prosecutors office announced.

-- A worldwide manhunt is underway for Belgian-born French national Salah Abdeslam, who is suspected of being involved in the attacks. French police warned that he is "dangerous."

-- Sources told CNN that Abdeslam was stopped and questioned by French police shortly after the attacks. At the time, he was not a suspect. He was let go.

The French Air Force carried out bombing missions over Raqqa early Monday, targeting a command center, recruitment center, ammunition storage base and a training camp.

-- Prior to Friday's attacks, Iraq shared intelligence that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had ordered an attack on countries fighting against ISIS. There were no specifics about when or where the attack would take place.

May the long arm of the law catch up with all the evil perpetrators and everyone that supports them passively, actively, quietly or openly.
