France is at an 'emergency' alert level and is doubling the number of soldiers deployed across the country after the killings of three people at the Notre Dame Basilica in the southern city of Nice 9News

The Nice attack is the third in two months in France that authorities have attributed to Muslim extremists, including the beheading of a teacher.

"He cried 'Allahu Akbar' over and over, even after he was injured. The meaning of his gesture left no doubt."French President Emmanuel Macron looks on as he speaks to the media near Notre Dame church in Nice, southern France. France's anti-terrorism prosecutor's office has opened an investigation into the attack, the third one since a trial began in September for people linked to the 2015 attacks at Charlie Hebdo and a kosher supermarket by gunmen who claimed allegiance to the Islamic State group and al-Qaida. The trial is nearing its end, with a verdict planned for November 13, the fifth anniversary of another series of deadly Islamic State attacks in Paris.

"With the attack against Samual Paty, it was freedom of speech that was targeted. With this attack in Nice, it is freedom of religion," Mr Castex told lawmakers. Turkey's Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the attack in Nice. "We stand in solidarity with the people of France against terror and violence," the statement said.
