(France 24) Ten years after the worst terrorist attack on French soil, President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday led a day of commemorations for the victims of the November 13, 2015, Paris attacks, which killed 132 people, including two survivors who later died of suicide.
The bells of the Notre-Dame Cathedral rang out on Thursday to honour the 132 people killed in jihadist shootings and suicide bombings in Paris 10 years ago, in France’s worst-ever peacetime attacks.
On November 13, 2015, assailants from the Islamic State (IS) group killed around 90 people at the Bataclan concert hall, where the US band Eagles of Death Metal were playing.
They ended the lives of dozens more at Parisian restaurants and cafes, and one person near the Stade de France football stadium, where spectators were watching France play Germany.
