Le Figaro said a bill would be brought before France's cabinet on November 18 extending the state of emergency by three months. French law limits a state of emergency initially to 12 days.
The government will be allowed to impose travel restrictions and declare special security areas. French Minister of Home Affairs Bernard Cazeneuve said on Belgian national TV RTBF that terrorist plots have been planned outside France in places like Belgium.
