Paris Islamist Attack Helped By The Migrant Crisis

Paris Islamist Attack Helped By The Migrant Crisis by Videospot PARIS—Seven people, including one man who was previously flagged as a security risk by French authorities because of his radical beliefs, killed 129 people over half an hour on Friday evening in multiple attacks around the French capital, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said on Saturday. On Saturday, Belgian authorities arrested three people because they were suspected of having helped provide a car used in one of the attacks, said Mr. Molins, who described the first findings of the investigation he is leading. The authorities found a Syrian passport near the body of one of the attackers, Mr. Molins said, though the name in the passport was not known to French security services. Mr. Molins said the attacks, which killed at least 129 people and injured at least 352, began at the Stade de France during a match between the national soccer teams of France and Germany. Two attackers set off suicide vests at the stadium, killing themselves and one other person. At around 9:30 p.m, gunmen in a black SEAT car drove around eastern Paris, firing on the customers at several restaurants. The car arrived at Le Bataclan at 9:40 p.m., where three gunmen entered the theater and killed dozens of people. All the gunmen wore suicide vests containing the explosive TATP, a chemical used in other major terrorist attacks such as the London bombings of 2005, Mr. Molins said. All the attackers either killed themselves by detonating their vests, or were shot by police, Mr. Molins said. Earlier Saturday, French President François Hollande vowed a “merciless” response to Islamic State, claiming the extremist group was responsible for the well-coordinated attacks and left the French capital in a state of shock. “It is an act of war that was waged by a terrorist army, a jihadist army, by Daesh, against France,” Mr. Hollande said, using an Arabic name for Islamic State. “This act of war was prepared and planned from the outside, with accomplices inside,” he added, saying France would respond to the attacks.
