A Lebanese man killed in the bombing of a shopping arcade on Paris’ Champs Elysees on Thursday had ties to a Lebanese terrorist group and probably planted the explosives that killed him, French police said. Nabil Dagher, 27, was a friend of jailed terrorist suspect Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, whose release has been demanded by a group that claimed responsibility for the bombing, the state-run France-Inter radio reported. Besides Dagher, another Lebanese man, who police said was not suspected in the bombing, was killed and 28 people were injured.
