Hundreds continued to gather at Republic Square in Paris, Tuesday, to pay their respects to the victims of Friday night's attacks across the French capital. Mourners lit candles and laid flowers at the foot of the monument to the French Republic, which has served as a focal point for the commemoration of the deceased. At least 129 people were killed and more than 349 left injured 99 critically, after a series of coordinated attacks were carried out at six different locations across Paris on Friday evening. At least 87 of those victims were killed after gunmen opened fire during a concert at the Bataclan theatre, taking dozens hostage before detonating suicide bombs. Dozens more were killed in attacks at the French national stadium and a string of popular bars and restaurants. The, so-called, Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) claimed responsibility for the attack.
