A hostage negotiation expert has given insight into how French authorities will be tackling the two separate situations unfolding in the country.
Authorities are reported to have begun negotiating with the two Charlie Hebdo massacre suspects after it emerged they have taken a hostage in Dammartin-en-Goele, northeast of Paris.
And in the capital, at least five people have reportedly been taken hostage at a kosher supermarket following a shootout with police.
Dr James Alvarez, who has worked as a consultant for Scotland Yard and the New York Police Department, said that negotiators would be concerned with the lives of the hostage, not the lives of the terrorists.
He told Sky News: "It is not likely at all that the French authorities will negotiate for the freedom of these guys. They will certainly negotiate for the life of the hostage.
"It seems likely that the French authorities will be less inclined to negotiate with them because of the very real risk they pose of hurting the hostages. I would be very surprised if there wasn't a rescue operation being planned as we speak.
"Even though these guys are a bunch of savages, the negotiators are going to be trying to calm things down ... the less volatile things are, the safer it is for everybody."
He was speaking as French security services surrounded Dammartin-en-Goele in an operation to capture the two heavily armed suspects - brothers Cherif Kouachi and Said Kouachi.
They are believed to be responsible for killing 12 people at the Charlie Hebdo magazine offices in Paris on Wednesday.
