Terror attacks in southern France

By Jordi Bou

March 23, 2018 - Three people were killed when a gunman held up a car, opened fire on police and then took hostages in a supermarket in the South of France.

More than 240 people have been killed in France in attacks since 2015 by assailants who pledged allegiance to the so-called Islamic State or were inspired by the group. Islamic State claimed responsibility for Friday’s attack but offered no details.
