Deaths: 130

The November 2015 Paris Attacks took place on November 13, 2015 in Paris and its suburb, Saint-Denis. The terrorist attacks started when three suicide bombers detonated themselves outside the Stade de France in Saint-Denis during a football match. Later that evening, there were several mass shootings and a suicide bombing at cafés and restaurants in the city. Gunmen eventually launched a mass shooting at a concert in the Bataclan theater and took hostages. When the police raided the theater, the gunmen were killed or blew themselves up. Out of 130 people killed, 89 were killed at the Bataclan, while another 413 people were injured. The attack was the deadliest in France’s history since the Second World War. The responsibility for the attacks was claimed by the Islamic State terrorist group.
