'Scale of Paris attack was shocking'published at 12:15
Agnes Poirier, a French journalist, says normally people in Paris would have taken to the streets to march, because "that's what we know". The people wanted to be there and to do something. However large gatherings have been banned in Paris so, she says people walked from one site to the other.
She says the French are in a situation where "compatriots are killing their compatriots" adding people have got used to the heavy security presence and being vigilant after the attacks in January on the offices of Charlie Hebdo. But she says it was the scale of the attack that was shocking.
