At least 127 people were killed and more than 200 injured in 6 coordinated attacks Friday night in Paris, French TV BFMTV reported Saturday morning, citing a police source.
About 82 victims lost their lives in the theater Bataclan in Paris 11th district where a shooting and a hostage-taking took place before the security forces neutralized the suspected attackers, according to BFMTV.
Among the 200 injured, 80 are in very critical conditions.
Eight suspected attackers were dead, including 7 who blew themselves up, BFMTV said, adding that this is the first time France suffers kamikaze attacks.
According to BFMTV, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls told L'Opinion "We can have attacks at any time, under very different forms."
The attacks came about two weeks before the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris (COP21), which dozens of heads of state and government are expected to attend.
France has declared a state of emergency, and security checks are reinforced at airports and railway stations. French Ministry of Interior suggests people stay inside unless due to absolute necessity.
A Council of Defense is being held in the presidential office the Elysee with presences of all ministers.
So far, no group has claimed responsibility for the coordinated attacks. No official death toll has been announced.
