Three people have been killed in a knife attack at a church in the French city of Nice, police say. Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi said there had been a "terrorist attack at the heart of the Notre-Dame basilica". One elderly victim who had come to pray was "virtually beheaded". A suspect was shot and detained shortly afterwards. Mr Estrosi spoke of "Islamo-fascism" and said the suspect had "repeated endlessly 'Allahu Akbar' (God is greatest)." President Emmanuel Macron is on his way to the scene. Anti-terror prosecutors have opened a murder inquiry and France raised its national security alert system to its highest level. Mr Estrosi compared the attack to the recent murder of teacher Samuel Paty, who was beheaded close to his school outside Paris earlier this month. Police have not suggested a motive for the attack in Nice. However, it follows days of protests in some Muslim-majority countries triggered by President Macron's defence of the publication of cartoons that depicted the Prophet Mohammed. There have been calls in some countries for a boycott of French goods. Meanwhile, two further attacks took place on Thursday morning, one in France and one in Saudi Arabia. A man was shot dead in Montfavet near Avignon after threatening police with a handgun. And a guard was attacked outside the French consulate in Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. A suspect was arrested and the guard taken to hospital. What is known about the attack in Nice? Two of those who died were attacked inside the church, the elderly woman and a man who was found with his throat cut, reports said. A woman managed to flee to a nearby cafe after being stabbed several times, but died later.

Chloe, a witness who lives near the church, told the BBC: "We heard many people shouting in the street. We saw from the window that there were many, many policemen coming, and gunshots, many gunshots." Tom Vannier, a journalism student who arrived at the scene just after the attack, told the BBC that people were crying on the street. Four years ago Nice was the scene of another terror attack, when a Tunisian drove a truck into crowds celebrating Bastille Day on 14 July, killing 86 people. source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/amp/world-europe-54729957?__twitter_impression=true |

Islam breeds extremism which is a fertile ground for terrorism... So, it is not out of place to be skeptical of anyone on a skull cap or hijab. |

na them.....they don’t disappoint when it comes to killing their fellow human being for no reason.. They have killed the man that showed cartoon but it’s not enough.....if you ask them now they will get angry and claim islamophobia ..... It still baffles me how millions of Muslims over the world are okay with this....Ask them now how they will feel if someone kills a Muslim in Jesus name ....they will avoid you |

Elsadam: I don’t understand you....first I’m not surprised u Muslim are always triggered when people complain about killing in the name of Allah and mohammed... Incase u don’t know what the topic is.... A teacher was beheaded in France on religious insults.....And someone still entered church to kill several people...as follow up retaliation... Are u saying ipob action in Nigeria is related to this killing in France?? Cos I don’t get why you are insulting me..... I condemn all wrong acts... including ipob, government, etc.... sto what exactly is ur point or u just want to defend mohammed? |

coolsegun2002: Bro Religion shouldnt be judge by the attitude of some of it nominal followers Instead it should be judge by it teachings and how the teaching affect it followers. Muslims are very peaceful and tolerant peaple. The problem with some of you is that u allow the media to succeed in puting sentiment and emotion in your mind that always cloud your judgement towards Muslim. I guess u have never been to the north. |
