Nice – Dozens of people have been killed after a truck plowed into a crowd celebrating Bastille Day in the city of Nice, in southern France. The cause of the apparent attack is still unclear.
The mayor of the French city of Nice said on Thursday that dozens may be dead after a van rammed into a crowd of revelers celebrating Bastille Day.
“The driver of a van appears to have killed dozens. Stay in your homes for now. More info to follow,” said Mayor Christian Estrosi in a tweet.
“This is the worst tragedy in the History of Nice, with more than 70 victims already reported,” the mayor added.
Il s'agit du pire drame de l'histoire de Nice car plus de 70 victimes sont déjà à déplorer.
