A series of coordinated attacks in Paris tonight, near the Stade de France, have claimed the lives of at least 39 people in an ongoing situation.

Tributes have since come in from leaders around the world, with US President Barack Obama calling it "an attack on all of humanity and the universal values we share". 

However, Mick Wallace and Clare Daly both turned to Twitter to question the role of France in "the militarisation of the planet".
