It is now one year since the attacks on the Charlie Hebdo newspaper offices, which killed 12 people.

Eleven months later on November 13, 2015, a series of coordinated attacks were carried out across the French capital.

Targets included the Bataclan theatre, cafes, restaurants and the Stade de France.

At least 130 people were killed and hundreds wounded in what was the deadliest attack on France since the Second World War.
