Sky News reports:
The aerial raid was launched from air bases in United Arab Emirates and Jordan, and involved 10 of France’s 12 fighter bombers based there.
It follows Friday’s terror attacks which left 132 people dead in the French capital.
IS fighters said they carried out the gun and bomb massacre on busy bars, restaurants and a music venue.
Sky’s Sam Kiley, in northern Iraq, said the French airstrikes should not be seen as a ‘wanton act of revenge, but France saying we want to do all the strikes’.
He said they were not carpet-bombing raids, but precision-guided operations that had been well planned in advance.
