Paris marks 10th anniversary of terrorist attacks/ Macron and Hidalgo attend

France commemorates the terrorist attacks of November 13, 2015, in which more than 130 people were killed and over 400 others were injured, when militants loyal to the so-called "Islamic State" (ISIS) group attacked several locations in Paris.

" The 10th anniversary is here and emotions and tension are everywhere for us survivors ," said Arthur Denouveaux, president of the victims' association.

"Life for Paris." "It protects us from the world in a way, because we are so focused on the grief and the memory of those who lost their lives.

"The hardest part is November 14th when you have to go back to normal life somehow and the grief is still there, but the connection is a little more distant ," Denouveaux told the Associated Press.

Gunmen attacked cafe patrons on the streets of Paris, as well as outside the Stade de France stadium where the French national team was playing Germany. The main ceremonies will take place in a new memorial garden near Paris City Hall, with President Emmanuel Macron and Mayor Anne Hidalgo attending. A new memorial has been erected, with the six sites of the violence on steles along with the names of the victims.

Macron and Hidalgo will also lay wreaths at the sites of the attacks around Paris. 

Parisians have been invited to place postcards and tributes at the Place de la République and the Eiffel Tower.

The sole surviving attacker, Salah Abdeslam, is serving a life sentence. Nineteen other accomplices have also been convicted./ DW
