Paris attacks: China’s President Xi Jinping says he’s willing to join France

Indian community especially the Sikh gurdwaras opened up to those in need soon after the attack was reported on local TV, Mr. Prabhat told The Hindu.

The NYPD is in close touch with our French police counterparts as well as our Federal Bureau of Investigation partners here, following the tragic events in Paris. She told France 24 that a woman lying next to her had a fatal injury.

President Obama called the attack “outrageous” and pledged USA support to France.

President Francois Hollande was at Stade de France, where France was hosting Germany in a soccer friendly.

Michel Cadot said the one set of attackers was at the stadium and at almost the same time the second group attacked, within the city.

US President Barack Obama on Friday condemned the deadly attacks now still unfolding in Paris and said it was too early to determine who was behind those attacks.

President Francois Hollande was evacuated at halftime of the France-Germany soccer match.

Preliminary reports said the explosions were caused by bombs. Hollande was in the stands at the game before being taken to a secure area.

An AP reporter in the stadium Friday night heard two explosions loud enough to penetrate the sounds of cheering fans. He said he immediately reached out to her and was relieved to hear she was out of town. Hollande has declared a state of emergency and closed the country’s borders.

Flights from the USA were still operating to Paris late Friday. “The French Football Federation shares the pain of the bereaving families and their loved ones”, FFF president Noel Le Graet said. Delta airlines said it was monitoring the situation and calling it very fluid. “There is no known nexus between the attacks in Paris and NY City, but we are cops, and we are cautious”.

Officials said there is now no threat on American soil.

Police have also deployed to the French consulate as a precaution. An official told CNN the hotline was flooded with calls. The terrorists shot at us for 10 to 15 minutes.

And it came less than two weeks after a Russian plane crashed in Sinai – downed, intelligence officials believe, by a terrorist bomb – killing all 224 people aboard. “Because when terrorists are capable of committing such atrocities they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow”.

“I left Paris right before it happened”.

His world is forever changed, but his resolve is strengthened. More than 100 world leaders are expected to attend.

“At first we thought it was part of the show, pyrotechnics or whatever. We will do whatever we can to help”.

She could not exclude the possibility that a few attackers might still be at large.

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said the USA stands “in solidarity with France, as it has stood with us so often in the past. Terrorism will never defeat democracy”.

Police raided the theater at around midnight, killed the terrorists inside and freed the remaining hostages.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks. “All of a sudden we heard huge gunshots and glass coming through the windows”.

“The big question on everyone’s mind is, were these attackers if they turn out to be connected to one of the groups in Syria, were they homegrown terrorists or were they returning fighters from having served” with the Islamic State group, Jenkins said.
