Ten years after the attacks of November 13, 2015, France remembers the victims of these devastating attacks, which resulted in the deaths of 132 people in Paris and its suburbs. In a sign of tribute, the Eiffel Tower will be illuminated in the colors of the French flag (blue, white, and red) on November 12 and 13. The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, emphasized the importance of this moment of commemoration, stating that Paris will never forget the victims. The 2015 attacks, carried out by Islamists, targeted public places such as the Bataclan concert hall, bars, and the Stade de France stadium, injuring hundreds of people. The Eiffel Tower has frequently been used as a symbol of tribute following tragedies, being illuminated in national colors after various terrorist attacks.
