Isn't France already bombing ISIS targets?

yes, they and USA just increased bombing of ISIS oil fields the last few days.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

Managed to contact my friends in Paris. One said she could hear Kalashnikov fire earlier.

Holy shit, this is insane. I'm honestly at a loss for words. Thoughts, hopes and prayers with all of Paris today.

 

[ClosingADoor]

This isn't an important question but did TV viewers hear the explosions live during the football game?

Yes, it was live. https://vine.co/v/iBb2x00UVlv

 

[quesalupa]

This is fucking horrible, I'm so pissed off right now. Way to ruin a good day you fucking assholes. And for what? I'm praying for you Paris, please be careful.

Shooting at les Halles

According to Europe 1

I think I'm having a nervous breakdown.

 

[Marvel]

The sound of that blast from the football stadium sounded huge. Very scary.

Yeah, not sure a grenade would sound that loud even outdoors but im no expert.

 

[Tesseract]

russian models for dead ender situations are probably being deployed

:/

 

[cyba89]

Fuck. The news keep getting worse.

 

[SephCast]

So I have a vacation to Paris/italy and I'm leaving tonight, landing in London for a stopover, then to paris by tomorrow afternoon. I don't know what to do.

Prayers go out to everyone there.

60 death confirmed on BFMTV

WOOOOOOW!

 

[Slayer-33]

Managed to contact my friends in Paris. One said she could hear Kalashnikov fire earlier.

That's bat shit crazy, I wonder how many are taking part of this attack

 

[Hyun Sai]

French Gaf here, even if from across the ocean. All my relatives seem safe, but I'm more and more worried for them.

 

[andythinkpad]

100+ hostages... this could turn into one of the worst hostage related event. This could be as bad as the the Russia/Chechen school tragedy.

 

[TS-08]

60 death confirmed on BFMTV

And this is in addition to the 100 hostages?

[Eternal Gamer]

Man those 100 hostages in the theater remembers me the attack on the theater of Moscow, I am worried this can end like that.

 

[Lender]

60 deaths already?

 

[TCRS]

holy fuck france again?!?!

they need to get this shit in order

 

[psynergylover]

i know I have no relation to Paris, France but I feel so powerless...fuck these terrorists man....

 

[DiipuSurotu]

If you're in Paris and you have nowhere to go, search #PorteOuverte , people are willing to let you stay over

French people are using #PorteOuverte to offer people without places to stay refuge for the night. Spread the word!

RT:RYAN WILTSHIяE Any non-French speakers/natives in #Paris check #porteouverte if you need shelter/place to stay temporarily #solidarity

If you're in Paris and looking for shelter, watch the #PorteOuverte hashtag. Parisians are helping out.

Residents in #Paris showing great solidarity and offering safe shelter under hashtag #PorteOuverte for those stranded in city tonight

porte ouverte = open door

 

[chadskin]

cnnbrk: BFM reports that at least 60 people have died in Paris attacks. https://t.co/uR4EHLFqrp

[Joni]

Oh fuck. Well, that is it. Borders will be locked down, Syria invaded and more military on the streets. There will be a very strong response to weed out ISIS, and I hope it will be fast and effective.

 

[Mudcrab]

WOOOOOOW!

Dude...

 

[Walpurgis]

Isn't France already bombing ISIS targets?

That doesn't help though. A lot of these guys aren't anywhere near the warzone.

 

[Nokagi]

60 people dead...

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

russian models for dead ender situations are probably being deployed

:/

huh?

 

[LordDash]

https://twitter.com/stefandevries/status/665296117526085632

10 minutes ago it was 40

fuck man, this isn't right

 

[M52B28]

Yeah, not sure a grenade would sound that loud even outdoors but im no expert.

Unless it was right outside of the stadium walls, you're right. And from the sounds of it, the microphone with the camera capturing the noise sounds pretty low. That was a bomb.

 

[Palette Swap]

holy fuck france again?!?!

they need to get this shit in order

Yes, because it's our fault.

 

[Herb Alpert]

This is huge.

Far more huge that what I thought at first.

 

[Starfield]

This is just completeley unaccaptable. Why is the world so fucked up.

 

[LiK]

CNN just said 60 dead now

 

[Konka]

CNN reports 60 confirmed dead.

 

[Sölf]

Why won't it stop?

 

[smokeandmirrors]

porte ouverte = open door

a bright spot on an otherwise awful night

 

[Ryan_MSF]

Sending love to paris-gaf, stay safe brothers and sisters.

 

[Majine]

60!?

 

[SenkiDala]

And this is in addition to the 100 hostages?

Yes.

Also they confirm that there are probably more than 1 hostages situation...

 

[Kathian]

Oh fuck. Well, that is it. Borders will be locked down, Syria invaded and more military on the streets. There will be a very strong response to weed out ISIS, and I hope it will be fast and effective.

The whole bombing campaign has been a disastrous waste of time. Everyone knows men on the ground is the only thing going to make a difference.

 

[Tesseract]

porte ouverte = open door

that's excellent

[Kraftwerk]

wow....

I feel that is the final straw and will make a lot of countries react very aggressively to ISIS. World changing day.

 

[valkillmore]

What is BFM

 

[Cereal Enthusiast]

S'il vous plait faites attention tous mes amis français, faites attention.

I think I'm going to cry.

 

[daviyoung]

military have been deployed, it's a warzone

 

[Jag]

Oh fuck. Well, that is it. Borders will be locked down, Syria invaded and more military on the streets. There will be a very strong response to weed out ISIS, and I hope it will be fast and effective.

But it won't be effective. ISIS is a movement online and spread out. They are insane, not stupid. If you know or hear of someone becoming radicalized, please beat some sense into them.

This is so horrible. Prayers and thoughts go out to all the victims. I hope the dark times are behind, but I fear they are just beginning.

 

[Pterion]

holy fuck france again?!?!

they need to get this shit in order

How? How do you destroy an evil ideology?

 

[TCRS]

fucking hell

I'm so fucking mad right now

they tired to attack the game as well

 

[Northeastmonk]

I hope Paris is safe. This is horrible. 60 people dead, why?
