Nine years after the terrorist attacks which left 130 dead, ceremonies are planned throughout the day, notably in the 11th arrondissement, where the Bataclan is located.
Nine years after the deadly terrorist attacks of November 13, Paris is organizing, like every year, commemorations in memory of the victims. Throughout the day, the City organizes ceremonies in memory of this night of horror when Islamists killed 130 people and left many injured in front of the Stade de France, in the Bataclan hall and in bars and restaurants in the 10 and 11e districts.
A first moment of contemplation was held this Wednesday morning in front of the bar “The Good Beer” rue du Faubourg-du-Temple, in the presence of the mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo and the president of the association “13Eleven15 Fraternity-Truth” Philippe Duperron, whose son Thomas was killed at the Bataclan.
Another ceremony is also planned “in the morning” at the town hall in the 11th arrondissement, the latter indicated, alerting of its exceptional closure until 2 p.m. This ceremony, organized by victims' associations and which is intended “respondent”, must be held in the presence of Prime Minister Michel Barnier. “Without giving in to oblivion, by multiplying the expressions of solidarity with the victims, Parisians have managed to restore life and daily life in these hard-hit neighborhoods. This collective ability to get back up is a signal of hope for Parisian society, but also of friendship and respect for the victims and their loved ones.wrote the town hall of the 11th in a press release.
A new victim
If 130 people lost their lives on the night of November 13 to 14, the number of victims has increased since then. Three survivors, haunted by their trauma, killed themselves. The last is Fred Dewilde, a cartoonist who survived the Bataclan, who committed suicide last May. His name will be pronounced for the first time in front of the Bataclan this Wednesday. “Terrorism is a poison that also kills over the long term,” called back Wednesday morning sur franceinfo Arthur Dénouveaux, president of the victims' association Life for Paris, believing that the name of the designer had its place on the memorial monument.
