France raised its terror alert to the highest level on Sunday following the deadly concert hall attack in Moscow claimed by ISIS, which resulted in the tragic loss of at least 137 lives on Friday.
French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal announced the decision to elevate the Vigipirate posture to the attack emergency level in response to the Islamic State's claim of responsibility for the heinous attack and the ongoing threats faced by the country.
The alert level escalation was decided after a meeting of France's defense and national security council, as confirmed by Prime Minister Attal.
