Sadly this figure will rise and rise through the night as the full horror of these attacks unfold.
nope...French authorities need to get a grip. It's been intelligence failure after failure at the moment.

Absolutely not in my opinion
Can we wait till the situation is under control before we get the wise cracks? People are dying at this very moment. Everyone is very much aware who the culprits are and that they adhere to Islam
I can't speak, this is sickening. What's happening with France's national security?
To the outside world it always seems they don't know something is going to happen until it has actually happened.
Hard to stop this.
Yep. And you could hear the explosions in german television during the game.
People were screaming. Frightening!Soldiers on the streets
holy shit that's where the footballers are. Hope everyone is OK, horrible that this is happening, another attack in Paris. 
I'd wager it'll probably be revenge for the leader (or second in command) who died earlier in the year in the US drone strike.
There are some spectators who have been told to remain in the stadium so lot on the pitch at the moment
I wonder why they chose to shoot at an Asian restaurant and concert hall, of all places.
Whoever those people are, I can only wish governments will understand that they only way to deal with such crazies is to put fecking bullets through their heads. They don't even deserve the right to be called humans from the moment when they have become that fecked up.
Isn't religion great!
Bit premature?
The UK and US seem to be doing ok. This isn't a billion Muslims taking up arms, its a handful of carefully networked nutjobs (who can feck off calling themselves Muslims). Surely they must upgrade their intelligence.
Their first mistake was letting so many migrants into their country. Probably not helping matters much.
Explosions heard from the stadium.
Thoughts and prayers with those who died, those who are held hostages and families of those people, horrible scenes.
That band involved at the concert is the Queens of the stone age's lead singers new band!
Doubtful.
So confirmed
- 3 incidents
- 60 hostages
- 26 dead
- Ak47s and Grenade attacks
- Gunmen still loose
Anyone else getting absolutely fed up with this shit? I have a little daughter ffs, in what world is she going to grow up? It's fecking infuriating.
Do we have any idea how many hostage takers there are?

I am kind of with the 'snoopers charter' now. What capabilities do the French authorities have in this regard?
Shocking news - RIP to all those who have been caught up in these terrible events.
Police now saying 11 dead at restaurant. 15 at theatre, more elsewhere

It's a surreal and also harrowing experience to be on Twitter in days like today.
30 dead (confirmed) - sad how it will rise
Hope no one else get's hurt obviously, thoughts and prayers with them now
That's what happens when a fecking religion has no genuine leaders to make a stand and say what is fecked up or not.
nah...we all know it's 99.999999% Muslims. Obviously, they can't report it as such until the terrorists are neutralized...but, what does your gut tell you?
Maybe the grenade explosions are being reported by some as a suicide bombing? I haven't seen any of the French news agencies mention anything about a suicide bomber.
In the grand scheme of human history, we are living in the most peaceful time ever.
Violence and war has decreased significantly over the years, it just seems more violent because of globalization and the internet.
Just seen the news. Shocking and unbelievable.
Talking about 2 suicide bombers, yet to be confirmed
