PARIS — French President Francois Hollande vowed a "merciless"
response to the deadliest attacks on the country's soil since World War
II as ISIS claimed responsibility Saturday for a coordinated assault on Paris.
A state of emergency was declared and France
deployed 1,500 troops after a near-simultaneous series of explosions and
shootings brought the city to a horrified standstill overnight. The
death toll rose to 127 and 200 other people were wounded, officials
said.
