(AFP) Two men who received the longest prison terms for allegedly aiding in the 2016 terror attack in the French resort city of Nice have appealed their conviction, prosecutors told AFP on Monday.
Their appeal came weeks after French judges ordered prison terms for eight people over the attack, in which a suspected Islamist rammed a lorry into a crowd celebrating the July 14 national holiday.
Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, a 31-year-old Tunisian, killed 86 people and wounded more than 450 others during a four-minute rampage on a seafront embankment before being shot dead by police.
Two suspects, Mohamed Ghraieb and Chokri Chafroud, were sentenced to 18 years earlier this month for helping the attacker.
