A massive manhunt is under way for two suspects in the Paris terror attack on a French satirical magazine.

Images have been released of brothers Said Kouachi and Cherif Kouachi, both in their early 30s, who are suspected of being part of the attack that left 12 people dead.

Officials have said the French nationals are linked to a Yemeni terror network.

The youngest of the suspects in the shooting has handed himself in to police after he was named on social media as Hamyd Mourad, 18.

Sky sources say the man, who has been arrested, is the brother-in-law of the suspects at large.

On Wednesday night heavily armoured French police raided an apartment in the city of Reims, east of Paris, as they continued a massive manhunt to find the killers.

French officials say seven people have been detained overnight. There was a shooting in southern Paris overnight, but a police source told Reuters news agency no link with the magazine attack has been confirmed.

Thousands of officers have reportedly been deployed in the hunt for the men behind the attack on the offices of Charlie Hebdo and 

It has previously been targeted over its portrayal of the Prophet Mohammed.

In Wednesday's attack, masked gunmen stormed the offices and called out their victims by name before opening fire during a morning editorial meeting.

They were armed with Kalashnikov assault rifles and a rocket-propelled grenade.

They were let inside the Charlie Hebdo building by a female employee who was threatened at gunpoint along with her daughter and forced to punch in a security code to allow them inside.

The editor and a cartoonist for the newspaper, who went by the pen names Charb and Cabu, were among those killed.

Radio France chief executive Mathieu Gilet announced that contributor Bernard Maris was also killed.
