Wave of Terror in Europe

One of the eight attackers, who carried out gun and bomb attacks at six sites across Paris on Friday night, has been identified as a Frenchman.

French police said that one of the attackers at the Bataclan concert hall, where many people had been held hostages before security forces stormed the building, was identified by his fingerprints as a Frenchman known to security services.

One Bulgarian citizen was reportedly killed in one of the multiple attacks, which claimed the lives of at least 128 people and left more than 180 people injured in Paris on Friday night.

The 37-year-old Sebastian, who has a dual citizenship - Bulgarian and French, was killed in the attack on the Le Petit Cambodge restaurant.

Islamic State (IS) has claimed responsibility for the series of attacks in Paris on Friday night, which left at least 128 people dead and more than 180 others injured.

In an official statement, IS stated that France was its "top target" and these attacks constituted only the "start of a storm", the Guardian reports.

The Foreign Ministry has no information on any Bulgarian citizens injured or killed in the multiple attacks, which left at least 120 people dead and more than 200 others wounded in Paris on Friday night.

Bulgarian Foreign Minister Daniel Mitov strongly condemned the attacks and expressed condolences to the families and relatives of the victims.

French President Francois Hollande, at the Stade de France stadium at the time of the deadly attacks at seven destinations around Paris at dawn on Saturday, made a statement regarding the attacks:

French prosecutors said on Nov. 14 that three coordinated teams of gunmen and suicide bombers carried out a wave of attacks across Paris that killed 129 people, while one of the attackers' identity was determined.  

At least 120 people were killed after multiple gun and bomb attacks took place in Paris on Friday night.

At least eighty people were killed at the Bataclan concert hall in central Paris, where gunmen had held hostages before being overpowered by security forces storming the building, the BBC reports.

Belgium on Aug. 31 unveiled plans for a controversial system to collect data on all airline passengers, as well as international train and ferry travellers, in the wake of a foiled attack on a train running between Belgium and Paris.

French President Francois Hollande on Aug. 24 awarded France's highest honour, the Legion d'honneur, to three U.S. citizens and a Briton who helped disarm a machine gun-toting suspected Islamist militant on a train last week. 

The award came a day after it was revealed that one of the Americans, Spencer Stone, also appeared to have saved the life of a fellow passenger. 

A gunman who opened fire on a train in northern France Friday was restrained by two U.S. Marines before he could do any further damage, according to initial reports of the incident.

At least two victims have serious injuries, and another suffered multiple gunshot wounds, a spokesman for the SNCF (National Society of French Railways) said Friday.
