France under attack.
World leaders rallied around French President Francois Hollande on Friday morning, who had made another sombre address to his people saying France has once again been under attack.
World leaders rallied around French President Francois Hollande on Friday morning, who had made another sombre address to his people saying France has once again been under attack.Nice - a resort in the south of France - witnessed terror and tragedy late Thursday night, when a lorry deliberately spun into crowds along a two kilometre stretch of road in the heart of the city.
Boulevard de Anglais was left strewn with bodies following the attack. Body bags held the remains of people who just hours before were celebrating the most French of holidays - Bastille Day.
It was clear that among the dead were babies and children, mowed down or shot by the driver of the lorry who authorities believe was almost certainly inspired by an extremist ideology.
US President Barack Obama echoed the French president in describing the event as a "horrific terrorist attack".
"We stand in solidarity and partnership with France, our oldest ally, as they respond to and recover from this attack," he said in a statement.
