On the evening of 13 November 2015, a series of coordinated terrorist attacks occurred in Paris, the capital of France, and its northern suburb, Saint-Denis. Beginning at 21:20 CET, three suicide bombers struck near the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, followed by suicide bombings and mass shootings at cafés, restaurants and a music venue in Paris.[7]

The attackers killed 130 people,[2] including 89 at the Bataclan theatre,[8] where they took hostages before engaging in a stand-off with police. There were 368 injuries,[4] 80–99 serious.[5][6] Seven of the attackers also died, while authorities continued to search for accomplices.[3] The attacks were the deadliest on France since World War II,[9][10] and the deadliest in the European Union since the Madrid train bombings in 2004.[11] France had been on high alert since the January 2015 attacks in Paris that killed 17 people, including civilians and police officers.[12]

The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) claimed responsibility for the attacks,[13][14] saying it was in retaliation for the French airstrikes on ISIL targets in Syria and Iraq.[15][16] The President of France, François Hollande, said the attacks were an act of war by ISIL[17][18][19] planned in Syria, organised in Belgium, and perpetrated with French complicity.[20]

In response, a state of emergency was declared,[18] and temporary border checks were introduced.[21] On 15 November, France launched the biggest airstrike of Opération Chammal, its contribution to the anti-ISIL bombing campaign, striking ISIL targets in Al-Raqqah.[22] On 18 November, the suspected lead operative of the attacks, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, was killed in a police raid in Saint-Denis, along with at least two other people.[23]

Background[]

France had been on high alert for terrorism since the Charlie Hebdo shooting and a series of related attacks in January by militants belonging to Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula,[12] and had increased security in anticipation of the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference, scheduled to be held in Paris at the beginning of December, as well as reinstating border checks a week before the attacks.[12]

Throughout 2015, France witnessed smaller attacks: the February stabbing of three soldiers guarding a Jewish community centre in Nice,[24] the June attempt to blow up a factory in Saint-Quentin Fallavier,[25] and the August shooting and stabbing attack on a passenger train.[26]

The Bataclan theatre had been threatened a number of times because of its public support for Israel.[27] Two Jewish brothers, Pascal and Joël Laloux,[28][29] owned the Bataclan for more than 40 years before selling it in September 2015.[30] In 2011, a group calling itself Army of Islam told French security services they had planned an attack on the Bataclan because its owners were Jewish.[27][31][32][33]

In the weeks leading up to the Paris attacks, ISIL and its branches had claimed responsibility for several other attacks: the suicide bombings in Ankara on 10 October, the downing of Metrojet Flight 9268 on 31 October[34][35] and the suicide bombings in Beirut on 12 November.[36][37]

Intelligence agencies in Turkey, Iraq and Israel had all warned of an imminent attack on France months beforehand, but were ignored by the French authorities.[38][39][40][41][42]

Stade de France explosions[]

Three explosions occurred near the country's national sports stadium, the Stade de France, in the suburb of Saint-Denis, resulting in four deaths, including the three suicide bombers.[53] The explosions happened at 21:20, 21:30,[note 1] and 21:53.[54] The first explosion near the stadium was about 20 minutes after the start of an international friendly football match between France and Germany, which President Hollande was attending.[55][56] The first bomber was prevented from entering the stadium after a security guard patted him down and discovered the suicide vest;[57] a few seconds after being turned away, he detonated the vest, killing himself and a bystander.[58] Investigators later surmised that the first suicide bomber had planned to detonate his vest within the stadium, triggering the crowd's panicked exit onto the streets where two other bombers were lying in wait.[59] Ten minutes after the first bombing, the second bomber blew himself up near the stadium.[note 1] Another 23 minutes after that, the third bomber's vest detonated nearby; according to some reports, that location was at a McDonald's restaurant;[57][60] others state that the bomb detonated some distance away from any discernible target.[61]

Hollande was evacuated from the stadium at half-time, while the German foreign minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, remained at the stadium.[21][62] Hollande met with his interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve to co-ordinate a response to the emergency.[63] Two of the explosions were heard on the live televised broadcast of the match;[note 1] both football coaches were informed by French officials of a developing crisis, but players and fans were kept unaware of it until the game had finished.[64] Hollande, concerned that the safety of the crowd outside the stadium could not be assured if the match was immediately cancelled, decided that the game should continue without a public announcement.[59]

Following the game, fans were brought onto the pitch to await evacuation as police monitored all the exits around the venue. Security sources said all three explosions were suicide bombings.[12] The German national football team was advised not to return to their hotel, where there had been a bomb threat earlier in the day, and they spent the night in the stadium on mattresses, along with the French team, who stayed with them in a display of camaraderie.[65]

Restaurant shootings and bombing[]

Rues Bichat and Alibert[]

The first shootings occurred around 21:25 on the rue Bichat and the rue Alibert, near the Canal Saint-Martin in the 10th arrondissement. Attackers shot at people outside Le Carillon, a café and bar,[66] before crossing the rue Bichat and shooting people inside the restaurant Le Petit Cambodge. According to French police, an eyewitness said one of the gunmen shouted "Allahu Akbar".[21] Le Monde reported that 15 people were killed at these locations and 10 were critically injured.[67] The assailants fled in one or two vehicles after the shootings.[68] One vehicle had a Belgian number plate.[69] Doctors and nurses from the nearby Hôpital Saint-Louis were in Le Carillon when the attacks happened and supplied emergency assistance to the wounded.[69]

Rue de la Fontaine-au-Roi[]

At 21:32, a man with a machine gun fired shots outside Café Bonne Bière,[54] close to the terrace of the Italian restaurant La Casa Nostra, on the rue de la Fontaine-au-Roi where it intersects with the rue du Faubourg-du-Temple south of the rue Bichat. The Paris prosecutor said five people were killed and eight were injured.[21] An eyewitness reported a gunman firing short bursts.[70]

Rue de Charonne[]

At approximately 21:36, two gunmen fired shots for several minutes at the outdoor terrace of the restaurant La Belle Équipe on the rue de Charonne in the 11th arrondissement where it intersects the rue Faidherbe, before returning to their car and driving away.[55][71] Nineteen people were killed, and nine were left in critical condition.[71]

Boulevard Voltaire bombing[]

At about 21:40, on the boulevard Voltaire in the 11th arrondissement, near the place de la Nation,[12] a man sat down in the Comptoir Voltaire café and placed an order before detonating his suicide vest, killing himself and injuring fifteen people, one of them seriously.[71][72]

Bataclan theatre massacre[]

Bataclan theater, Paris 3 April 2009

The Bataclan theatre in 2009

At approximately 21:40, a mass shooting and hostage-taking occurred at the Bataclan theatre on the boulevard Voltaire in the 11th arrondissement. The American band Eagles of Death Metal was playing to an audience of around 1,500 people.[21][62] About an hour into the concert,[73] a car pulled up outside the venue and three dark-clad men with AK-47 assault rifles entered the hall.[12][74] Witnesses heard shouts of "Allahu Akbar" just before the gunmen took up positions on the mezzanine and opened fire on the crowd.[12][74][75] Initially, the audience mistook the gunfire for pyrotechnics.[76][77] The attack lasted 20 minutes, and witnesses also reported seeing the attackers throw hand grenades into the crowd.[75] A radio reporter attending the concert described the attackers as calm and determined, telling CNN they had reloaded three or four times.[75] Survivors escaped via the emergency exit into the street or made their way onto the roof, with some taking refuge in toilets and offices;[74] others lay still on the floor pretending to be dead. The band's members escaped without injury.[78]

Around 22:00, the attackers took 60–100 concertgoers hostage as police gathered outside the venue.[21][48][75] They threatened to decapitate a hostage and throw the corpse out the window every five minutes. A witness who escaped told a journalist that the gunmen had mentioned Syria.[76][79] One witness in the Bataclan heard a gunman say, "This is because of all the harm done by Hollande to Muslims all over the world."[80][81] There were further attacks on police and first responders who arrived at the scene.[82]

Starting at 22:15, the Brigade of Research and Intervention (BRI) arrived on the scene, followed by the elite tactical unit, RAID.[83] The assault on the theatre began at 00:20 and lasted three minutes.[83][84] Police launched the assault because of reports that the attackers had started killing hostages.[12][75][85] They initially estimated that 100 people had been killed,[63][76] but the toll was revised to 89.[8] Two attackers died by detonating their suicide vests.[12][75][76] Another was hit by police gunfire and his vest blew up when he fell.[12] Identification and removal of the bodies took 10 hours, a process made difficult because some audience members had left their identity papers in the theatre's cloakroom.[86]

Perpetrators[]

On 14 November, ISIL claimed responsibility for the attacks.[87][88][89][90] François Hollande said ISIL organised the attacks with help from inside France.[19] Claimed motives were an ideological objection to Paris as a capital of abomination and perversion,[91] retaliation for airstrikes on ISIL in Syria and Iraq,[15] and the foreign policy of Hollande in relation to Muslims worldwide.[92] Shortly after the attacks, ISIL's media organ, the Al-Hayat Media Group, launched a website on the dark web extolling the organisation and recommending the encrypted instant messaging service Telegram.[93][94]

Syrian and Egyptian passports were found near the bodies of two of the perpetrators at two attack sites,[95] but Egyptian authorities said the passport belonged to a victim, Aleed Abdel-Razzak, and not one of the perpetrators.[96] By 16 November, the focus of the French and Belgian investigation turned to Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the radical jihadist they believed was the leader of the plot.[97] Abaaoud, a Belgian of Moroccan origin, had escaped to Syria[98][99] after having been suspected in other plots in Belgium and France, including the thwarted 2015 Thalys train attack.[100] Abaaoud had recruited an extensive network of accomplices, including two brothers, Brahim Abdeslam and Salah Abdeslam, to execute terrorist attacks.[101] Abaaoud was killed in the Saint-Denis raid on 18 November.[102][103][104]

All of the known Paris attackers were EU citizens, who crossed borders without difficulty albeit registered as terrorism suspects.[105] According to the French prime minister, Manuel Valls, several of the perpetrators had exploited Europe's immigration crisis to enter the continent undetected.[106] At least some, including the alleged leader Abdelhamid Abaaoud, had visited Syria and returned radicalised. Jean-Charles Brisard, a French expert on terrorism, called this a change of paradigm, in that returning European citizens were themselves the attackers. The Los Angeles Times reported that more than 3,000 Europeans have travelled to Syria and joined ISIL and other radical groups.[107]

Identification[]

Three teams executed the attacks.[20][44] They wore explosive vests and belts with identical detonators.[108] Seven perpetrators died at the scenes of their attacks.[3][109]

Three suicide bombers blew themselves up near the Stade de France:

  • Bilal Hadfi, a 20-year-old French citizen who had been living in Belgium.[110] Hadifi attempted to enter the Stade de France but blew himself up nearby after being denied entry.[110] He fought with ISIL in Syria for more than a year and was a supporter of the Nigerian extremist group Boko Haram.[111] In the months before the attacks, he was active on social media, posting pro-jihadist messages, and communicated with a Libyan branch of ISIL.[112] Belgian prosecutors knew Hadfi had gone to fight in Syria but did not know of his return to the EU.[110]
  • M. al-Mahmod, who had entered the EU with Syrian refugees via the Greek island of Leros on 3 October.[113]
  • The final bomber carried a passport belonging to a 25-year-old Syrian named Ahmad al-Mohammad.[110][111] A passport-holder claiming to be a Syrian refugee with that name was registered on Leros in October upon his arrival from Turkey.[114] The dead attacker's fingerprints matched those taken at the registration on Leros.[110][115][116][117][118] French officials concluded that "Ahmad al-Mohammad" is probably a dead Syrian soldier whose passport was stolen after he was killed in Syria.[119][120]

Three men carried out the shootings at bars and restaurants in Paris:

  • Brahim Abdeslam, a 31-year-old French member of the Molenbeek terror cell living in Belgium, carried out shootings in the 10th and 11th arrondissements. Shortly afterwards, he blew himself up at the Comptoir Voltaire restaurant on the boulevard Voltaire.[12][110][111][121][122]
  • An attacker suspected to be Abdelhamid Abaaoud.[110]
  • An unidentified suspect.[110]

Three other men attacked the Bataclan theatre using AK-47s and took hostages.[12] Two blew themselves up when police raided the theatre. The third was hit by police gunfire and his vest blew up when he fell.[12] According to French police, they were:

  • Samy Amimour, a 28-year-old from Paris who fought in Yemen and was known to the intelligence services,[110][123] had reportedly been on the run from police since 2012 due to being wanted over terrorism related charges.[124]
  • Omar Ismail Mostefai, a 29-year-old from the Paris suburb of Courcouronnes,[110] travelled to Syria in 2013 and may have spent time in Algeria.[125] In 2010, the French authorities put Mostefai on a database of suspected Islamic radicals.[110] He was identified by a severed finger found inside the Bataclan.[111][126]
  • An unidentified suspect.[110]

Search for accomplices[]

Three cars were recovered in Paris after the attacks:

  1. A Volkswagen with Belgian licence plates abandoned near the Bataclan was hired by a French citizen living in Belgium and contained a parking ticket from the town of Molenbeek.[127]
  2. A SEAT was found in the Paris suburb of Montreuil on 15 November and contained assault rifles.[128]
  3. A Renault hired by Salah Abdeslam was discovered near Montmartre on 11 November and contained assault rifles.[129][130]

Police described Abdeslam, a 26-year-old Belgian citizen, as dangerous, and warned the public not to approach him.[131] His brother, Brahim, died in the attacks.[132] Another brother, Mohamed, was detained on 14 November in the Molenbeek area of Brussels and released after several hours of questioning.[133] Mohamed said he did not suspect his siblings of planning anything.[124]

On 14 November, a car was stopped at the Belgium–France border and its three occupants were questioned then released. Three more people were arrested in Molenbeek.[134] Links to the ISIL attack in France were investigated in an arrest in Germany on 5 November, when police stopped a 51-year-old man from Montenegro and found automatic handguns, hand grenades and explosives in his car.[135]

On 15–16 November, French tactical police units raided over 200 locations in France, arresting 23 people and seizing weapons.[136] Another 104 people were placed under house arrest.[137][138]

On 17 November, police followed a cousin of the attacker and ringleader, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, to a block of flats in Saint-Denis where they saw Abaaoud with her.[139][140] The next day, police raided a flat in Saint-Denis, and Abaaoud was killed in the ensuing gunfight, which lasted several hours.[102][103][104] Eight suspected militants were arrested at or near the flat.[141]

On 23 November, an explosive belt was found in a litter bin in the Paris suburb of Montrouge. It may have been discarded by Salah Abdeslam, a fugitive whose phone records showed that he was in Montrouge on the night of the attacks.[142]

On 24 November, five people in Belgium had been charged on suspicion of their involvement in the Paris attacks, and Belgian prosecutors issued an arrest warrant for Mohamed Abrini, a 30-year-old suspected accomplice of Salah Abdeslam.[143]

Analysis of tactics[]

Michael Leiter, former director of the United States National Counterterrorism Center, said the attacks demonstrated a sophistication not seen in a city attack since the 2008 Mumbai attacks and that it would change how the West regards the threat.[144] Further comparisons were made between the Paris attacks and the Mumbai attacks.[145][146][147] Mumbai Police Joint Commissioner (Law and Order) Deven Bharti pointed out the similarities as having several targets, shooting indiscriminately and the use of improvised explosive devices.[148][149] According to Bharti, the key difference was that the attackers in Paris did not attempt to prolong the attack and blew themselves up at the first hint of capture.[150] Evidence points to the attackers having regularly used unencrypted communications during the planning of the attack.[151]

The attackers killed 130 victims and injured between 352 and 368,[4][167] with 80 taken to hospital in serious condition.[5] Of the dead, 89 died at the Bataclan theatre, 19 at La Belle Équipe, 15 at Le Carillon and Le Petit Cambodge, 5 at Café Bonne Bière and La Casa Nostra, and 1 at Stade de France.[168] Victims were confirmed from at least 26 countries (some holding multiple citizenships). Among those who died at the Bataclan were a music critic of Les Inrockuptibles;[169] an executive of Mercury Records France; and the merchandise manager of Eagles of Death Metal, the band that was performing.[160] Some people suffered from PTSD.[170]

Aftermath[]

Local response[]

The hashtag #portesouvertes ("open doors") was used by Parisians to offer shelter to those afraid to travel home after the attacks.[171]

As had been the case in January after the Charlie Hebdo attacks, the Place de la République became a focal point of mourning, memorial, and tributes.[172] An impromptu memorial also developed near the Bataclan theatre.[173] On 15 November, two days after the attacks, a memorial service was held at Notre Dame Cathedral, presided over by the Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal André Vingt-Trois, with several political and religious figures in attendance.[174]

Muslim organisations in France, such as the Union of Islamic Organisations of France, strongly condemned the attacks in Paris.[175][176][177] The attacks affected business at high profile venues and shopping centres in Paris, and many Parisians were concerned the attacks might lead to a marginalisation of Muslims in the city.[178] There was not the same call for solidarity with Islam, as in January, following the attacks.[179] Sales of the French flag, which French had rarely displayed prior to the attacks, increased dramatically after the attacks.[180]

National response[]

French governmental response[]

President Hollande issued a statement asking the French people to remain strong in the face of the attacks.[181][182] He also visited the Bataclan theatre and vowed to "mercilessly" fight against terrorism.[63] Hollande chaired an emergency meeting of the French Cabinet that night and directed his national security council to meet the next morning.[63] The authorities urged the residents of Paris to stay indoors for their own safety and declared a state of emergency.[21][68][183] Hollande cancelled his trip to the 2015 G-20 Antalya summit because of the attacks, instead sending Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius and Finance Minister Michel Sapin as his representatives.[184] On 14 November, Hollande announced three days of national mourning.[185] On 17 November, Hollande convened a special Congress of the French Parliament to address the attack and lay out legislative and diplomatic plans he wanted to take in response to them. These proposals included an extension of the state of emergency for three months, changes to the French constitution, one of which would enable France to protect itself from dual citizens who might pose a risk, and an increase in military attacks against ISIL.[186]

French military response[]

On 15 November, the French Air Force launched the biggest airstrike of Opération Chammal, its bombing campaign against ISIL, sending 10 aircraft to drop 20 bombs on Raqqa, the city where ISIL is based.[136] On 16 November, the French Air Force carried out more airstrikes on ISIL targets in Raqqa, including a command centre and a training camp.[187] Applications to join the French Army, which were around 100–150 per day in 2014, rose to 1,500 in the week following the attacks, higher than the rise to 400 after the Charlie Hebdo shooting in January.[180][188]

Intelligence review[]

Paris Shootings - The day after (22593744177)

French police gathering evidence at the Bataclan theatre on 14 November

Shortly after the attacks, intelligence staff in multiple countries began to review electronic surveillance recorded before the attacks.[62] Adam Schiff, the ranking Democratic member of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, said he did not know of any intercepted communications that would have provided warning of the attacks.[189]

One source said the French National Police met with German police and intelligence services a month before the attack to discuss suspicions that terrorists were staking out possible targets in France. The exact targets were not known at that time.[190]

Police in Germany stopped a car on 5 November, arrested its driver, and confiscated weapons that may have been connected to the Paris attacks.[191]

Some of the attackers were known to law enforcement officials prior to the attacks, and at least some of the attackers had residences in the Molenbeek area of Brussels, which is noted for its links to extremist activities.[20] A counter-terrorism expert said the fact that the perpetrators were known to authorities suggests that intelligence was "pretty good" but the ability to act on it was lacking. The number of Europeans who have links to Syria makes it difficult for security services to keep track of them all.[192]

Security changes[]

In response to the attacks, France was put under an état d'urgence (state of emergency) for the first time since the 2005 riots,[18] borders were temporarily closed, and 1,500 soldiers were called in to help the police maintain order in Paris.[12][68][193] The plan blanc (Île de France) and plan rouge (global), two contingency plans for times of emergency, were immediately activated.[194][195][196] Belgium tightened security along its border with France and increased security checks for people arriving from France.[21]

Flights to and from Charles de Gaulle Airport and Orly Airport were mostly unaffected.[62] American Airlines delayed flights to Paris until further notice.[197] Many Paris Métro stations in the 10th and 11th arrondissements were shut down because of the attacks.[68][198] Uber suspended car hails in Paris after the attacks.[199]

All state schools and universities in Paris remained closed the next day.[200][201] Sports events in France for the weekend of 14–15 November were postponed or cancelled.[202][203] Disneyland Paris, which had operated every day since opening in 1992, closed its parks as a mark of respect for those who died in the attacks.[201][204] The Eiffel Tower, a Paris landmark visited by 20,000 people a day, was closed indefinitely.[201][205] Other venues that were to remain closed included shops and cinemas.[201] Protests were banned until 19 November,[201] while bands such as U2, Foo Fighters, Motörhead, and Coldplay cancelled performances in Paris.[206]

On 20 November, the Senate in France agreed to extend the current state of emergency by three months; this measure gave police extra powers of detention and arrest intended to increase security, at the expense of some personal liberties. In the following week, Hollande was planning to travel to the U.S. and Russia to discuss greater international cooperation against ISIL.[207]

Cities in the United States took security precautions, especially at sites where large crowds were expected, as well as sports events, concerts, the French embassy and other French government sites.[208][209] William J. Bratton, the New York City Police Commissioner, said the Paris attacks have changed the way law enforcement deals with security.[210] Singapore raised its national security alert level, stepping up border checks and security across the city-state.[211] Police and military authorities in Manila were placed on full alert in preparation for the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting.[212]

French domestic politics[]

All major political parties, including Hollande's governing Socialist Party, Marine Le Pen's National Front, and Nicolas Sarkozy's Republicans temporarily suspended their election campaigns for the upcoming French regional elections.[213] There was a nationwide minute of silence at noon which President Hollande and several ministers observed at a ceremony at the Paris Sorbonne University.[214]

On 18 November, Hollande reaffirmed France's commitment to accept 30,000 Syrian refugees over the next two years.[215] This was despite the doubts that the terror attack had sown in people's minds. His announcement drew a standing ovation from a gathering of French mayors.[216]

European Union response[]

The President of the European Commission rejected calls to rethink the European Union's policy on migration, Juncker said he believed that the attacks should be met with internal open borders.[217] European Commission Vice-President Federica Mogherini and EU defence ministers backed France's request for help in military missions.[218]

The United Kingdom[219] has already stated its intent to help France with operations in Syria, while some countries intend to aid France by taking over activities in Africa. Germany will send troops to Mali and military trainers to Kurdish forces in Iraq.[220]

The attacks prompted European officials to reevaluate their stance on EU policy toward migrants, especially in light of the ongoing European migrant crisis.[221][222] Many German officials believed a higher level of scrutiny was needed, and criticised German Chancellor Angela Merkel, while the German Vice-Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel defended her.[222]

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said that he would meet with EU ministers to discuss how to deal with terrorism across the European Union.[223] Meeting reports indicated that Schengen area border controls have been tightened for EU citizens entering or leaving, with passport checks[224] and systematic screening against biometric databases.

Poland's European affairs minister designate Konrad Szymański declared that he saw no possibility of enacting the recent EU refugee relocation scheme.[225][226] The new Prime Minister of Poland, Beata Szydlo said she would ask the EU to change its decision on refugee quotas.[227][228] Szydlo stated that Poland would honour the commitment made by the previous government to accommodate 9,000 refugees.[229][230]

Hungary's prime minister, Viktor Orbán, rejected the concept of mandatory resettlement quotas.[231]

Czech Prime Minister, Bohuslav Sobotka, criticized president Miloš Zeman for supporting anti-Islamic groups and spreading hatred, according to Reuters, whose report adds that the Sobotka government has been deporting migrants.[232]

Many heads of state and heads of government, as well as the United Nations, offered messages of condolence and solidarity in the wake of the attacks.[233][234][235]

Muslim officials[]

Muslim heads of state, scholars, imams, leaders and groups condemned the attacks, many before ISIL claimed responsibility.[236] These included the imam who heads the University of Al-Azhar in Egypt; the Supreme council of Religious Scholars in Saudi Arabia;[237] Iranian president Hassan Rouhanil[238] and the Ahmadiyya caliph Mirza Masroor Ahmad.[239]

Syrian president Bashar al-Assad condemned the terror attacks in Paris, but added that France's support for Syrian rebel groups had contributed to the spread of terrorism.[240] France had been a particularly vocal opponent of Assad during the Syrian civil war.[241]

Ahrar ash-Sham and Jaysh al-Islam, the major mainstream Islamist rebels against the Syrian regime, both condemned the attacks.[242] Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, condemned the attacks, and expressed his solidarity with the French people.[243] Other militant groups also condemned the attacks, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine.[244]

The al-Nusra Front, the Syrian branch of Al-Qaeda, praised the attacks, saying that even though they viewed ISIL as "dogs of hellfire," they applauded when "infidels" get attacked by ISIL.[242]

Notes[]

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 These times were officially given at the press conference by the prosecutor of Paris François Molins, 14 November 2015. However, video recordings of the match suggest that the gap between the first and the second explosion was much shorter because the first shot is heard at 00:16:24 after the start of the match, and the second time at 00:19:34.
