Coordinated attacks across Paris including grenade attacks near Stade de France during France v Germany, up to 60 hostages apparently being held, details still coming in.

Unclear exactly what happened near the Stade de France. One report said there were two suicide bombs detonated outside two of the gates of the stadium. Another report has stated it was grenades near the stadium and another report that was three bombs outside a bar near the stadium. Perhaps it is all of them or things are just very confused.

Also the hotel the German team were staying in recieved a bomb threat earlier which forced the hotel to be evacuated. Linked?

The France - Germany match is over (prematurely?) and the crowd is being moved on to the pitch.

There was at least one bomb blast heard clearly in the Stade de France.

Death count up to 35 now according to BBC, which is live on ABC24.

Reports hostages in concert hall might be being shot with a pump action shotgun, some people have escaped.

Escapee from concert hall reporting 5 or 6 gunmen and they were saying things about Syria

There was an Californian band "Eagles of Death Metal" playing in the Bataclan concert hall when the attack took place.

Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age's side project

Not a death metal band at all

Absolutely horrible.

I spent a few weeks in France last year on my honeymoon and this kind of shit just doesn't surprise me.

RIP to all.

Hollande will prolly think its nothing to sneeze at.

Fuck what a messed up world we live in. Rip to those involved.

Bottom line, it was inconsiderate of the people who caused the disturbance because its a sports game

From a distance the footage of the explosion is just a bunch of guys wearing white vs a bunch of guys wearing navy blue

Feel for everyone there, you just wouldn't feel safe at the moment there, who knows if another attack occurs? Absolute bastards.

you know things are well and truly fucked up in France when they now have no go zones in certain areas

waiting for Murdoch Rags to come out and say anyone who condems this act is a bigot and s racist

news outlets are reporting the gunmen using AK 47 Kalishnikovs

So he could be among the hostages? Edit - apparently he wasn't with the band. Doesn't make it less terrible, of course.

And pump action shotguns so fuck all you cunce that were saying there's no problem having an 8 shot shotgun imported into australia to holders of the easiest class of licence to get.

Fuck the UAE and Saudi Arabia for funding ISIS.

Hollande making a live address now.

Whats he saying..."oh its nothing..calm down everyone....its only firecrackers".

So what are the odds that these people are "refugees"

He's declared a state of emergency and closed the borders.

How ironic.

It's not rocket science to see a huge rise in far right political parties and anti-immigration sentiment.
