On 7 January 2015, at approximately 11:30 CET (10:30 UTC), two masked gunmen armed with Kalashnikov rifles, a shotgun, and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher stormed the headquarters of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris.[4] They shot and killed 12 people, and wounded 11 others.[5][6][7]

The gunmen entered the building and began shooting with automatic weapons, while shouting "Allahu Akbar".[8] Up to 50 shots were fired during the attack.[9] The two gunmen and a driver escaped in a car, and are still at large. Police have identified the perpetrators as Saïd Kouachi, Chérif Kouachi and Hamyd Mourad.

The incident is the deadliest mass murder to occur on French soil since 1989.[10][11][12]

Background

Charlie Hebdo (French pronunciation: [ʃaʁli ɛbdo]; French for Weekly Charlie) is a French satirical weekly newspaper, featuring cartoons, reports, polemics, and jokes. Irreverent and stridently non-conformist in tone, the publication is strongly antireligious[13] and left-wing, publishing articles about the extreme right, Catholicism, Islam, Judaism, politics, and culture, among other issues.

Charlie Hebdo was first published from 1969 to 1981. It folded, but was resurrected in 1992. Stéphane "Charb" Charbonnier was the editor from 2009 until his death in this shooting.

The publication was controversial in the past. The cover of a 2011 issue, dubbed "Charia Hebdo", depicted a cartoon of the Islamic prophet Muhammed.[14] The newspaper's office, at the time in the 20th arrondissement, was fire-bombed[15] and its website hacked. The following year, the newspaper published a series of satirical cartoons of Muhammad, including nude caricatures;[16][17] this came days after a series of attacks on U.S. embassies in the Middle East, purportedly in response to the anti-Islamic film Innocence of Muslims, prompting the French government to close embassies, consulates, cultural centers, and international schools in about 20 Muslim countries.[18] Riot police surrounded the newspaper's offices to protect against possible attacks.[17][19][20]

Event

On 7 January 2015, at approximately 11:30 CET (10:30 UTC), two masked gunmen armed with Kalashnikov rifles, a shotgun, and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher stormed the headquarters of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in Paris.[21][22] They opened fire with automatic weapons while shouting "Allahu Akbar", as reflected on video of the attack.[8] They shot and killed 12 people, and wounded 11 others.[23][5] Two of those they killed were police officers.[24]

Cartoonist Corinne Rey reported that two armed and hooded men, speaking perfect French, forced her to type in the code to open the door to the building.[25] The men first began shooting in the entrance hallway of the building and killed a man.[26] They then moved up to an office on the second floor, where the staff was in an editorial meeting, with approximately 15 members in attendance.[27] The entire shooting lasted between five and ten minutes. Witnesses reported that the gunmen sought out members of the staff by name[28] before executing them with single shots to the head.[29] Other witnesses reported that the gunmen identified themselves as belonging to al-Qaeda in Yemen.[30]

An authenticated video surfaced on the Internet showing two gunmen, along with a wounded police officer contorting with pain on the sidewalk after an exchange of gunfire. One of the gunmen then ran towards the policeman, shouting, "You wanted to kill me?" The policeman then answered "No, it's good, chief", raising his hand towards the gunman, before being shot in the head at close range by him.[31] The two gunmen then left the scene, shouting in natural French that "[w]e have avenged the Prophet Muhammad, we killed Charlie Hebdo".[32][33][34]

The gunmen escaped in a getaway car and drove to Porte de Pantin, where they hijacked another car, forcing the driver out.[5] As they fled, they ran over a pedestrian and shot at responding police officers.[35] There are three suspects in total.[23] As of the afternoon of 7 January, they are still at large.[5]

Victims

Twelve people were killed in the attack. Eleven died inside the headquarters of Charlie Hebdo, including a police officer assigned as a bodyguard for Charb. The twelfth victim was a second police officer who was killed outside while responding to the attack.[28] The cartoonists Charb, Cabu, Honoré, Tignous, and Wolinski were killed in the attack.[36] Other victims included the economist Bernard Maris;[37][38] Michel Renaud, founder of the Rendez-vous du carnet de Voyage Festival; and a janitor employed by Sodexo.[39] Another eleven people were injured in the attack, four of them seriously. This included a police officer who was seriously injured in the leg.[40]

Suspects

Saïd Kouachi and Chérif Kouachi were identified by French police as the main suspects in the shooting. The two Franco-Algerian brothers, both from Gennevilliers, are aged 34 and 32, respectively.[41][42] In 2008, Chérif Kouachi was convicted of terrorism charges and sentenced to three years in prison, along with 18 months of suspension, for having assisted in sending fighters to Iraq's insurgency.[43][44] An 18-year-old homeless man of unknown nationality, known as Hamyd Mourad, has been identified by the police as another suspect in the shooting.[45]

Police officers are currently searching their apartments.[46] The RAID, the special operations tactical unit of the French National Police, is about to launch an assault in Reims, where the suspects have been located.[47][48]

Reactions

Governmental

The attack has been widely condemned by the French and other governments. French President François Hollande addressed media outlets at the scene of the shooting and called it "undoubtedly a terrorist attack", and added that "several [other] terrorist attacks were thwarted in recent weeks".[49] He later described the shooting as a "terrorist attack of the most extreme barbarity"[50] and declared a day of national mourning on 8 January.[51]

Anne Hidalgo, attending a rally in the Place de la République in the wake of the shooting, said, "What we saw today was an attack on the values of our republic, Paris is a peaceful place.

Other political leaders also issued statements condemning the attack, including European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte,[79] Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Yalçın Akdoğan,[80] Chilean President Michelle Bachelet,[81] Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko,[82] Queen Elizabeth II,[83] the Swiss Federal Council,[84] Croatian President Ivo Josipović, and Croatian Prime Minister Zoran Milanović.[85]

Security

Following the attack, France raised its terror alert to the highest level and deployed soldiers to Paris' public transport, media offices, places of worship, and the Eiffel Tower. The British Foreign Office warned its citizens about travelling to Paris.[86] The New York City Police Department also ordered extra security measures to the French Consulate-General headquarters in Manhattan.[29]

Public

Demonstrations

Multiple demonstrations were held against the shootings at the Place de la République in Paris,[87] as well as Toulouse.[88] Around 2,000 demonstrators also gathered in London's Trafalgar Square, where they sang the French National Anthem.[89][90]

Media reactions

Media organizations carried out protests against the shootings. Libération, Le Monde, and Le Figaro, along with other French media outlets, used black banners carrying the "Je suis Charlie" slogan across the top of their websites.[91] Ian Hislop, editor of the British satirical magazine Private Eye, released a statement, saying, "I am appalled and shocked by this horrific attack – a murderous attack on free speech in the heart of Europe. [...] Very little seems funny today."[92] Many cartoonists from around the world responded to the attack on Charlie Hebdo by posting cartoons relating to the shooting.[93]

Several news organizations like CNN, Associated Press, and The Daily Telegraph chose to not show the caricatures while covering the case in order to not offend Muslims, while on the other hand news sites like Huffington Post and The Daily Beast featured the caricatures in slideshows.[94]

Several other media publications such as the Berliner Kurier from Berlin, Germany and Gazeta Wyborcza from Poland have chosen to re-print the exact same cartoon the day after the attack.[95]

Muslim community

Many Muslims expressed shock and disgust regarding the killings on social media. The Muslim Council of France and the Muslim Council of Britain spoke out against the attack, with imam Dalil Boubakeur stating, "[W]e are horrified by the brutality and the savagery."[96] The Union of Islamic Organizations of France released a statement condemning the attack, along with imam Hassen Chalghoumi saying that those behind the attack "have sold their soul to hell".[97] The vice president of the U.S. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community also condemned the attack, saying, "The culprits behind this atrocity have violated every Islamic tenet of compassion, justice, and peace."[98] The "Je suis Charlie" slogan was also used heavily by Muslim users on social media, with some speaking out against the attack specifically as an assault on free speech.[99]

The League of Arab States released a collective condemnation of the attack. Al-Azhar University also released a statement of denunciation, with senior official Abbas Shoman stating that violence was never appropriate regardless of "offence committed against sacred Muslim sentiments".[100]

Turkey's Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu raised concerns that the attack could fuel further anti-Islamic stances in France and in Europe as a whole, stances which he added help to fuel terrorism itself. The Dutch Council of Moroccan Mosques also raised those concerns that the tension could result in anti-Islam violence in the Netherlands.[101]

However, ABC News reported a positive response from Middle Eastern Muslims, writing that "[a]s news of the killings in Paris reached the Middle East, celebratory gunfire was reported in a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon".[102]

Je suis Charlie slogan

Je suis Charlie (Error: {{language with name/for}}: missing language tag or language name (help))

The slogan "Je suis Charlie" ("I am Charlie") was used by supporters of free speech against the shooting. The statement identifies the speaker with those who died at the Charlie Hebdo shooting, and by extension for freedom of speech and resistance to armed threats.

It was used as the hashtag #jesuischarlie on Twitter,[103] as printed or hand-made placards, and displayed on mobile phones at vigils, and on many websites, particularly media sites, for example Le Monde.

Je suis Charlie quickly trended at the top of Twitter hashtags worldwide following the attack.[104] The US Embassy in Paris changed its Twitter profile picture to the "Je suis Charlie" placard.[105]
