Francois Hollande says France is at war with ISIS
after two Islamist knifemen butchered a French priest and left a nun
fighting for her life before they were both shot dead by police in
Normandy.
One
of the men who stormed into the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray near
Rouen during mass was a local man, who was being monitored by
electronic tag after being jailed for trying to join fanatics in Syria.
The
84-year-old priest, named as Jacques Hamel, had his throats cut while a
nun is critically injured in hospital following the raid which saw five
people held hostage by ISIS assailants shouting 'Allahu Akbar'.
This
afternoon it emerged that the murdered clergyman was deputising while
the parish priest was on holiday. French authorities say they have
arrested a third man in connection with the attack.
The
two killers were 'neutralised' by marksmen as they emerged from the
building, which is now being searched for explosives. French president
Hollande said France is 'at war' with ISIS while the terror group has
claimed responsibility for the killing.
It
comes as it emerged that the building was one of a number of Catholic
churches on a terrorist 'hit list' found on a suspected ISIS extremist
last April.
