At least 128 people were killed in the Paris attacks, with 180 people injured, 80 of them seriously, police sources.

The death toll given by the sources to AFP does not include at least eight militants killed during the attacks last night.

All of the known attackers were wearing explosives belts.

They wrought unprecedented violence on the streets of the French capital in a series of coordinated shootings and bombings that were the bloodiest attacks in Europe since the Madrid train bombings in 2004.
