PARIS: The calm, cold determination and deadly efficiency of the gunmen who attacked a French satirical newspaper on Wednesday, leaving 12 people dead, has led police to believe they received military-style training.

Images of the attack on the Charlie Hebdo offices, taken on cellphones, show a carefully planned and professional operation, said a former bodyguard and policeman, speaking on condition of anonymity.
