The suspected female accomplice of Amedy Coulibaly, the man behind the shooting at a Jewish supermarket in Paris, is believed to have left France last week to travel to Syria via Turkey, said sources.
French police are on the hunt for the 26-year-old burqa-wearing, crossbow-shooting wife of kosher-grocery-store shooter and cop killer Amedy Coulibaly.
A man identified as Amedy Coulibaly, who took hostages at a kosher supermarket on Friday and killed a policewoman a day earlier, claimed to be a member of the terror outfit -- Islamic State -- in a video that was released on the Internet on Sunday.
Hours after Paris police cornered two gunmen, who were responsible for the Charlie Hebdo killings, at a printing press in Dammartin-en-Goele, two other gunmen took 5 people hostage at a kosher grocery store in Porte de Vincennes, eastern Paris.
France is on high alert after officials said that other members of a terror cell may still be at large after last week's attacks in Paris on the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo and a supermarket.
