France marks Charlie Hebdo, market attacks 3 years later


French President Emmanuel Macron and Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo on Sunday laid a wreath outside the former office of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo to mark the third anniversary of two attacks by Islamic extremists. On Jan. 7, 2015, French-born brothers killed 11 people inside the building, as well as a Muslim policeman outside. Macron, alongside Hidalgo, uniformed police and Charlie Hebdo journalists, stood in silence outside the old office of the magazine as floral wreaths were laid to mark the anniversary. This wreath was laid in commemoration of the victims of the jihadist attack on French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo near the magazine's offices in Paris on Sunday, the third anniversary of the shooting attack.
