President Obama Speaks on Massive Paris Shootings, Explosives Attacks That Kill Over 60 People November 13, Obama Calls Deadly Paris Attacks ‘Heartbreaking’
President Obama addressed the attacks in Paris on Friday evening, calling the attacks “heartbreaking.”
“This is an attack not just on Paris… It’s an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share,” he said.
At least 60 people were killed in the coordinated attacks. Obama warned that the situation was ongoing.
“France is our oldest ally,” he said. “The French people have stood shoulder to shoulder with the U.S. time and time again. We want to be very clear that we stand with them in the fight against terrorism and extremism.”
“Once again we’ve seen an outrageous attempt to terrorize innocent civilians… Those who think that they can terrorize the people of France or the values that they stand for are wrong.”
He added, “American people can draw strength from the French people’s commitment to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

PARIS (AP) — At least 100 people died in a popular Paris concert hall where attackers seized hostages Friday, an official said, one of at least six terror attacks that unfolded across the city in the deadliest violence Paris has seen since World War II.
French President Francois Hollande declared a state of emergency and announced that he was closing the country's borders. The violence spread fear through the city and exceeded the horrors of the Charlie Hebdo carnage just 10 months ago.
Paris police officials said security officials had launched an assault on the concert hall, killing at least two attackers. One described "carnage" inside the building, saying the attackers tossed explosives at the hostages.
In addition to the deaths at the concert hall, a police official said 11 people were killed in a Paris restaurant in the 10th arrondissement and other officials said at least three people died when bombs went off outside a stadium.
All of the officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to be publicly named in the quickly moving investigation.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks, and no clear picture of how many attackers were involved and if any were on the run. Jihadists on Twitter immediately praised the attack and criticized France's military operations against Islamic State extremists.
Hollande, who had to be evacuated from the stadium when the bombs went off outside, said in a televised address that the nation would stand firm and united.
"This is a terrible ordeal that again assails us," he said. "We know where it comes from, who these criminals are, who these terrorists are."
U.S. President Barack Obama, speaking to reporters in Washington, called the attacks on Paris "outrageous attempt to terrorize innocent civilians" and vowed to do whatever it takes to help bring the perpetrators to justice.
Earlier Friday, two explosions were heard outside the Stade de France stadium north of Paris during a France-Germany friendly football match. A police union official said there were two suicide attacks and a bombing that killed at least three people.
The official, Gregory Goupil of the Alliance Police Nationale, whose region includes the area of the stadium, said explosions went off simultaneously near two entrances and a McDonalds.
An Associated Press reporter in the stadium Friday night heard two explosions loud enough to penetrate the sounds of cheering fans. Sirens were immediately heard, and a helicopter was circling overhead.
The attack comes as France has heightened security measures ahead of a major global climate conference that starts in two weeks, out of fear of violent protests and potential terrorist attacks. Hollande canceled a planned trip to this weekend's G-20 summit in Turkey, which was to focus in large part on growing fears of terrorism carried out by Islamic extremists.
Emilio Macchio, from Ravenna, Italy, was at the Carillon restaurant that was targeted, having a beer on the sidewalk, when the shooting started. He said he didn't see any gunmen or victims, but hid behind a corner, then ran away.
"It sounded like fireworks," he said.
France has been on edge since deadly attacks by Islamic extremists in January on satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo and a kosher grocery that left 20 dead, including the three attackers. The Charlie Hebdo attackers claimed links to extremists in Yemen, while the kosher market attacker claimed ties to the Islamic State group.
One of at least two restaurants targeted Friday, Le Carillon, is in the same general neighborhood as the Charlie Hebdo offices, as is the Bataclan, among the best-known venues in eastern Paris, near the trendy Oberkampf area known for a vibrant nightlife. The California-based band Eagles of Death Metal was scheduled to play there Friday night.

The operation tonight was fatally reminiscent of the 2002 Moscow theater hostage crisis when more than 100 hostages were killed after Russian special forces stormed a crowded theater taken over by Chechen rebels.
5TH UPDATE, 4:09 PM: French police have secured the Bataclan concert venue. According to France’s BFMTV and other local media, two of the hostage takers were killed in the assault by authorities. Elite police squads were used, say the BBC. No word yet on the number of casualties of concertgoers or others in the building. However, various outlets showed footage of first responders entering the venue with stretchers and taking victims away from the building.
“We are still currently trying to determine the safety and whereabouts of all our band and crew,” said a posting on Eagles of Death Metal’s Facebook page in the last 20 minutes. “Our thoughts are with all of the people involved in this tragic situation.” It is unclear if the California band actually took the stage at the venue as scheduled tonight.
4TH UPDATE, 3:49PM: At 3:42 PM, cable news and international media began reporting that the French police have stormed the Bataclan concert venue where up to 100 hostages are being held. Just beforehand, the authorities asked French news channel i-Tele to stop broadcasting images of the venue. Unverified reports have emerged that shooting is going on in the venue where U.S. band the Eagles of Death Metal were playing tonight.
3RD UPDATE, 2:46 PM: All U.S. broadcast networks went live to President Obama’s remarks this afternoon on the situation in Paris from the White House. In his brief statement, the President called today’s shootings and explosions, which have left at least 40 dead in three separate incidents around the city according to French officials, an “attack not just on Paris, it’s an attack not just on the people of France, but this is an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share.” Added Obama, “We stand prepared to provide whatever assistance the government and people of France need to respond. France is our oldest ally.” The President made his statement but took no questions from reporters.
