Recent arrests in the U.S. and in Europe bolster concerns about a reinvigorated Islamic State terror group bent on lashing out against the West .

FBI officials confirmed the bureau shared information with French authorities following last week’s arrest of 27-year-old Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi , an Afghan national in Oklahoma City , Oklahoma , on charges connected to a mass shooting plot in the name of the Islamic State group.

French anti-terrorism prosecutors said Saturday that the suspects appear to have been involved in a plan to carry out an attack on a football stadium or a shopping center.
