Many loose their life in at least eight attacks in Paris on Friday

More than 120 people were killed in six attacks
perpetrated by at least eight attackers in Paris on
Friday, French officials said. The violence, which
occurred 11 months after gunmen linked to Al-Qaeda
carried out a deadly attack on the offices of French
satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, was one of the
worst atrocities to strike the capital city in recent
memory.
Three suicide bombers targeted a bar area near the
Stade de France during a soccer match, attended by
French President François Hollande, as a hostage
crisis, which has since concluded, unfolded at a
concert hall. There were also shootings and
explosions near restaurants and bars in the city’s
10th and 11th arrondissements, near the center of the
city. More than 200 people were reportedly injured in
the attacks.
The perpetrators remain a mystery — their
nationalities, their motives, even their exact number.
However, eyewitnesses say that some attackers were
heard shouting “Allahu Akbar,” Arabic for “God is
great,” during the melee.

hall where California band Eagles of Death Metal was
playing
A witness told Al Jazeera that several men entered
the Bataclan concert hall and started firing into the
air. An American band called Eagles of Death Metal
was playing to a packed crowd of close to 1,000
people.
Attackers held as many as 100 hostages for several
hours at the concert hall until French security forces
raided the venue and defeated the hostage takers,
who were reportedly executing people inside.
Four attackers were killed at Bataclan, three of which
detonated explosive vests they were wearing, officials
said. Police shot and killed the fourth.
