BBC news and several other media reported on the terror attack in Paris which took place on Friday the 13th. 129 people were killed after several attacks over Paris. About 100 people were taken hostage at the Bataclan where a concert was taken place. Majority of the deaths occurred there Also, small restaurants and bars were targeted. Isis have announced that they were behind the attack on Friday which was a few days after Jihadi John was killed by an air strike.
This is the 2nd terrorist attack in Paris this year after the Charlie Hebdo shootings in January. This raises major concern about the security in Paris. Army's from across Europe are helping out in France. Today (Sunday) a memorial service was held for the people who were affected by the shootings. recent support shows that there was a false alarm at the memorial where people started to run away in fear. People are still worried about the possibility of another attack, which lead to the chaotic event at the memorial. People in Paris don't feel safe at the moment which is understandable.
In my opinion I think that Paris should improve its security. Because of this being the second attack, Security should be increased as there is a high possibility that they could become a target again. Overall I think that all countries should take extra precautions and improve their security due to the rise in attacks.

To improve you could have talked about the pictures you included in your analysis and explained what they brought to/showed in the article.
