Paris prosecutors have determined that two of the three suicide bombers who targeted France’s national stadium north of Paris last week passed through Greece on the same day last month. The image shows one of the assassins of the Stade de France therefore.

He travelled to western Europe with another attacker, Ahmad al-Mohammad, from the Greek island of Leros, early last month.

Meanwhile. a week after the deadliest attacks on France in decades, defiant Parisians honoured the 130 victims with candles and songs tonight, despite knowing that at least one suspect is still at large. They stayed together in Serbia, too.

It is unknown whether that was his real name, or if he was travelling on a fake or stolen passport.

The five other attackers who died had links to France and Belgium.

A manhunt is still underway for Belgian-born French national Salah Abdeslam.

Terror gripped a Paris neighbourhood overnight in fresh anti-terror raids.

Prosecutors today said that a third person was killed in the raid but did not release the identity.

In a sign of the nervousness in Paris since the attacks, a few travellers at the Gare du Nord station ran out of their trains yesterday after hearing noises they thought were gunshots but actually were caused by a pigeon being electrocuted on the tracks.
