After the Moscow attacks, France deploys exceptional means to ward off the specter of a terrorist attack. While Vigipirate was raised to its maximum level, 4,000 soldiers were called in to strengthen the Sentinel system.
“We are going to multiply ourselves further and deploy exceptional means everywhere to suffocate Islamism, which is a spiral of hatred, feeds on our naivety and wants to kill the Republic,” Gabriel Attal declared on Monday. For the record, since 2012, France has been the scene of 25 attacks causing 273 deaths and several hundred injured.
