Paris Attacked: About 120 People Reportedly Killed -BBC by Nobody: 8:00am On Nov 14, 2015
France has declared a national state of emergency and
tightened borders after at least 120 people were killed
in a night of gun and bomb attacks in Paris.
Eighty people were reported killed after gunmen burst into
the Bataclan concert hall and took dozens hostage.
The siege ended when security forces stormed the building.
People were shot dead at bars and restaurants at five other
sites in Paris. Eight attackers are reported to have been
killed.
Police believed all of the gunmen were dead but it was
unclear if any accomplices were still on the run after the
string of near-simultaneous attacks.
Paris residents have been asked to stay indoors and about
1,500 military personnel are being deployed across the city.
The gunmen's motives were not immediately confirmed, but
one witness at the Bataclan heard one of the attackers
appear to express support for the militant Islamic State (IS)
group.
"It's Hollande's fault, he shouldn't have intervened in Syria!"
the man shouted, according to French news agency AFP,
citing the French president's decision to take part in Western
air strikes on IS.
Paris saw three days of attacks in early January, when
Islamist gunmen murdered 18 people after attacking
satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, a Jewish supermarket and
a policewoman on patrol.

Attack sites:

Bataclan concert venue, 50 boulevard Voltaire, 11th district -
gun and suicide bomb attacks

Stade de France, St Denis, just north of Paris - explosions
near venue as France played Germany in football friendly

Le Carillon bar, 18 rue Alibert, 10th district - gun attack

Le Petit Cambodge restaurant, 20 rue Alibert, 10th district -
gun attack

La Belle Equipe, 92 rue de Charonne, 11th district - gun attack

La Casa Nostra restaurant, 2 rue de la Fontaine au roi, 11th district - gun attack

What we know

The attack on the 1,500-seat Bataclan hall was by far the
deadliest of Friday night's attacks. Gunmen opened fire on
concert-goers watching US rock group Eagles of Death Metal.
The event had been sold out.
The series of attacks not far from the Place de la Republique
and the Place de la Bastille struck at the heart of the capital
when cafes, bars and restaurants were at their busiest.
Customers were singled out at venues including a pizza
restaurant and a Cambodian restaurant.
The other target was the Stade de France, on the northern
fringe of Paris, where President Hollande and 80,000 other
spectators were watching a friendly international between
France and Germany, with a TV audience of millions more.
The president was whisked to safety after the first of at least
two explosions just outside the venue to convene an
emergency cabinet meeting. Three attackers were reportedly killed there.
As the extent of the bloodshed became clear, Mr Hollande
went on national TV to announce a state of emergency for
the first time in France since 2005. The decree enables the
authorities to close public places and impose curfews and
restrictions on the movement of traffic and people.
Within an hour, security forces had stormed the concert hall
and all four attackers there were dead. Three had blown
themselves up and a fourth was shot dead by police.
Another attacker was killed in a street in eastern Paris,
reports said.
Speaking after arriving at the concert hall, President
Hollande said the attackers would be fought "without
mercy".
US President Barack Obama spoke of "an outrageous
attempt to terrorise innocent civilians".
UK PM David Cameron said he was shocked and pledged to
do "whatever we can to help".
Paris Mayor Ann Hidalgo announced that all schools,
museums, libraries, gyms, swimming pools and markets
would be shut on Saturday.
