French minister: intel services 'working harder than ever' Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said Wednesday that the intelligence services were "working harder than ever" to prevent assaults incited by "a number of characters in Syria who used encrypted methods to call on young people to carry out attacks." The comments came after a French teenager linked to an Islamic State (IS) extremist suspected of instigating several attacks in France was arrested for allegedly offering to carry out a strike.
