Summary so far
As we try to make sense of exactly what is going on, The Telegraph's David Chazan has this summary of what we know:
At least 18 people were killed and “many wounded” in a series of attacks in Paris by gunmen armed with kalashnikovs and grenades on Friday evening, police said.
Grenades were reportedly thrown at a stadium in the north of the French capital where a football match between France and Germany was being held, witnesses said.
The first shooting to be reported took place at a Cambodian restaurant in the 10th arrondissement of the city, an area with many crowded bars and restaurants, particularly busy on Friday evening.
A second shooting was reported minutes later near a nightclub in the area, Le Bataclan, where gunmen were said to be holding hostages. Later grenades were said to have been thrown at a stadium in the north of the city where a football match between France and Germany was being held.
Large numbers of police rushed to the scene of the first attack, a Cambodian restaurant in the 10th arrondissement of the French capital. They evacuated nearby bars and restaurants.
The motive of the shootings is unknown, but Parisians feared that terrorists had again attacked the French capital, where 17 people were killed in a series of attacks in January that began with the shootings of staff at the office of the Charlie Hebdo magazine. Sirens were heard throughout central Paris.

Chickens coming home to roost. Sad state of affairs but eve these geniuses probably never expected this cost of Anti Asad campaign. They bomb libya and it starts a chain reaction in middle east then refugees flood in to EU with God knows how many armed lunatics.

'Masked men firing'
Posted at21:59
The France 24 network has interviewed a witness to a shooting outside the restaurant, Anne-Sophie.
“Everyone was outside on the terrace of the restaurant when all of a sudden we saw these masked men start firing in all directions. It felt like it lasted a long time.”
She said there was “an enormous amount of injured”.
