A female terrorist wearing a suicide vest has blown herself up and another jihadi was killed by a grenade during a six-hour siege on a flat where police believe the mastermind behind the Paris massacres was hiding with six other ISIS terrorists.

The stand-off between 110 armed officers and the Paris terror cell ended as a bloodied and half-naked suspect was dragged out of an apartment block in Saint-Denis - close to the Stade de France.

The gunfight started at 4.25am when SWAT teams and special forces surrounded the building believing it contained Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 27, the architect of the plots that killed 129 people on Friday. The French authorities will not say if he was there or if he is dead or alive.

A woman 'with long blonde hair' who may be Abaaoud's jihadi bride is said to have fired her AK-47 at police before blowing herself up as an assault squad stormed their hideout. As she tried to kill police another terror suspect was killed by a grenade blast.
