On November 13, extremists wearing explosive belts attacked several venues across Paris, killing some 130 people and injuring hundreds more at restaurants, the Bataclan concert hall and in the vicinity of the Stade de France stadium. The Islamic State militant group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
Following the attacks, French authorities declared a state of emergency, vowed to increase defense spending and boosted national anti-terror security.
