Summary France continues its crackdown on Muslim communities following last months shooting in Toulouse.

In a recent development, three imams have been issued expulsion orders soon after the deportation of two believers of Islam identified an Algerian and Malian imam on Monday.According to the French interior ministry, expulsion orders have been given to a Saudi, Turkish and Tunisian imam on the charges of making anti-Semitic statements in their sermons by calling Muslims to reject western values and asking women to wear full-face veil.Earlier, French police arrested 19 people in a crackdown on suspected extremists in dawn raids.
