In Paris, French President Emmanuel Macron has attended a third anniversary commemoration for those killed in the 2015 attack on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
Macron visited the Charlie Hebdo offices for a ceremony that was also attended by families of the victims. Twelve people were killed in the attack claimed by the jihadist group Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. The militants said they targeted the magazine for printing blasphemous cartoons of the prophet Mohammed. It was the first of several jihadist attacks across France.
