    Sky have shown footage from the game between France and Germany. The explosion sounded deafening from the stadium.

    Just heard it was an Eagles Of Death Metal concert. I'm very fearful that some people I know are caught up in this....

    Whoever is to blame will lay a claim soon.

    How many 'groups' have the means, money and motivation to deliver 3 or 4 attacks, including reported suicide bomber(s), in the heart of of a European capital city ?

    Bound to lead to concerns about the Euros in the summer.

    I think it will have more serious repercussions than a football tournament.
    Of course - I didn't suggest it would be the biggest concern in light of this horrific event, but considering this is the first attack that close to a football ground I'm aware of, the fact one of the biggest football events in the World is due in that very City in 7 months, it will be a very big concern for France and the French people.

    Reports that the French Police are about to storm the theatre now.

    Unusual for the gendarmerie to publicise their strategic and operational planning..?

    Tweeted by a local journalist. Not 100% confirmed yet.

    Reports of another shooting in a shopping centre now
  • The shopping centre recently happened or occurred the same time as the others?

    Was meant to be flying to Paris on business trip today but had to cancel for personal reasons. My family are rather relieved .

    The events are so sad.

    Just now, reportedly . Gunman with explosives seen at the concert
  • Lets keep the religious shit out of this, happens every time there is a terrorist attack, keep it to news and reports in my opinion.

    It's about death and terror and horror and panic --- they don't deserve to breath the air of real humans

    Obama on TV now:

    France is our oldest ally

    American people draw strength from the French people's values

    "Terrorists" used repeatedly

    Gunfire reported at the Pompidou and L'ouvre
  • Reports that people are tweeting begging for the police to raid the theatre as they are slaughtering the hostages 1 by 1.

    Truly awful
