(Radio France) At the special criminal court where 20 men are being tried for their alleged involvement in the November 2015 terrorist killings of 130 people, survivors of an attack at the Bataclan concert hall on Thursday described the night of horror that saw 90 people slaughtered — victims of three murderers armed with automatic weapons and explosive vests.
An irony of history, 13 November 2015, the day on which three suicide squads attacked Paris, was World Kindness Day.
That fact was pointed out to one survivor by the girl he was having a beer with at the Bataclan bar, minutes before the killers arrived and opened fire 10 metres from where the couple were standing. They both suffered serious head wounds, but they escaped and are alive.
