France ask for Military support.

The besieged country demanded unprecedented military support from its European Union allies on Tuesday for its crackdown on ISIS, as France continued its police raids and saw more arrests for the terror attacks in Paris.

French defense officials cited an article from the EU’s Lisbon Treaty that has reportedly never been used before, which says EU members must
give “aid and assistance by all means in their power” to a fellow country that is “the victim of armed aggression on its territory.”

British Prime Minister David Cameron said he supported France's latest air stikes on Syrian terror cells, but did not say the United Kingdom would join the cause. German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said it "doesn't make sense" for his country to add to the air strikes.

French President Francois Hollande is scheduled to meet with President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin later this month to strategize a reprisal to ISIS.

Lawyers in Belgium said two suspects behind bars there picked up terror suspect Salah Abdeslam the day after the assault. Those men — Mohammed Amri, 27, and Hamza Attou, 21 — are now being held on terrorist murder and conspiracy charges, and being investigated as potential suppliers of suicide bombs used in the attack.

Abdeslam remains on the run after slipping past Belgian border authorities hours after the bloodbath. Authorities are also hunting for the suspected mastermind of the massacre, Abdelhamid Abaaoud.

Five people, comprising at least two men and one woman, were arrested Tuesday near Alsdorf, a small German city near the border of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, after a tip that one of them was involved in the bloodshed.
