French fighter planes have carried out their biggest bombing raid in Syria by dropping 20 bombs on the Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa in northern Syria.
The bombers hit a jihadi recruitment centre, training camp and arms depot run by the extremist group, according to the French defence ministry.
A spokesman described it as a "massive" attack and France's biggest to date in Syria.
French foreign minister Laurent Fabius said France had the "legitimacy" to take action against IS after the terror attacks in Paris which left 132 people dead.
