French President Francois Hollande said a state of emergency would be declared across France
and national borders shut following a spate of attacks in Paris on
Friday evening in which he said dozens were killed and several wounded.
"It is horror," Hollande said in a brief statement on television, adding that a cabinet meeting had been called.
"A state of emergency will be declared," he said. "The second measure will be the closure of national borders," he added.
"We
must ensure that no one comes in to commit any act whatsoever, and at
the same time make sure that those who have committed these crimes
should be arrested if they try to leave the country, he added.
