The owners of the Bataclan concert hall in Paris have said they have "no words" to express their sorrow following Friday's attacks.

Eighty-nine music fans were killed and more than 100 injured when gunmen fired into the crowd during a concert by US band Eagles of Death Metal.

"Our thoughts are with the victims, the injured and their loved ones," the venue said in a statement posted on Twitter.

It also thanked people for the support it had received since the attack.

Defence Secretary Michael Fallon has said the UK must reconsider launching air strikes against Islamic State targets in Syria, a move that would require consent from parliament.

Speaking to the BBC, Mr Fallon said the French had made the right decision in stepping up its air strikes on the IS stronghold of Raqqa following Friday's attacks, because it was clear they had been planned in northern Syria.

"France's fight is our fight" he stressed. "The terror is on our own doorstep."

BBC correspondents find messages of solidarity and defiance from Parisians.

French PM Manuel Valls has said Friday’s attacks were organised from Syria in connection with operatives in Belgium and France.

But most people involved in Islamic State-related plots have no contact with the organisation at all, according to a study, external by the Terrorism Research Initiative, external.

The BBC's Gavin Lee has heard the remarkable story of a man who survived the Bataclan attacks because of his wooden leg.

"I said to my son: 'I am a dead man, it's over. You don't move, don't move! But me, I am dead.' 

"The terrorist arrived, he touched my leg one time. He just pushed it slowly to see if you resist, which means that you are alive..."

President Francois Hollande has just finished addressing a rare joint session of French two houses of parliament.

Here are some of the key points:

• Tighter EU border controls: Mr Hollande warned: "If Europe doesn't control its external borders, then it is the return of national borders... This would mean the dismantling of the European Union."

• Extending state of emergency: The government will table a bill in parliament to extend France's state of emergency by three months. It is currently limited to 12 days
• New deportation powers: Mr Hollande called for a change to France's constitution to make it easier to expel people deemed to pose a threat to national security
• Security resources: He announced funding for an additional 5,000 police officers, 2,500 judicial staff, and 1,000 border personnel
• No cuts to the armed forces: The presidents said there would be no cuts to the country's armed forces before 2017, and that the power of the military would be returned to its 2007 level
• More air strikes in Syria: He vowed to intensify air strikes targeting the jihadist group Islamic State in Syria: "Terrorism will not destroy the Republic because the Republic will destroy terrorism," he said
• Meeting with Obama and Putin: Mr Hollande said he would meet with US President Barack Obama and Russia's Vladimir Putin in the coming week to discuss co-operating in the fight against IS

The brother of two of the Paris attackers has spoken to journalists following his release by Belgian police. Mohamed Abdeslam's brother Brahim blew himself up in the Comptoir Voltaire bar, while his other brother, Salah, is the subject of an international manhunt. 

Mohamed Abdeslam, who was arrested over the weekend but released without charge on Monday, stressed that his family did not know where Salah was. Their thoughts were "with the families of the victims", he said. "We are moved by what happened." 

He said he had "noticed absolutely nothing" abnormal about his brothers' behaviour before the attacks. "We still don't know exactly what happened," he said.

President Hollande's speech to congress ended with a round of applause and members singing the French national anthem.

He said: "We will eradicate terrorism so that the movement of people can go on ... so that France can continue to lead.

"Terrorism will not destroy the Republic because the Republic will destroy terrorism."

Hollande announces additional resources for France's security forces.

• 5,000 additional police officers over the next two years.
• 2,500 extra posts within the country's prisons and judicial system.
• 1,000 extra staff for customs and border agency
• No cuts to the armed forces before 2017
•  Additional computer and information resources for defence  

"This is a considerable effort and the government is prepared to do what it takes," Hollande says.

He says France will restore the capabilities of its security forces to its 2007 level.

France needs to change its constitution to give authorities the power to expel more quickly foreigners who present a particularly serious risk to public order, Hollande says.

Hollande says parliament will meet on Wednesday to discuss extending the French state of emergency for three months.

"There will be more raids in France ... security and safety are fundamental rights," he says.

France will intensify operations in Syria, where the Paris attacks were "decided and planned", Hollande says.

French president Hollande is speaking now at Versailles to both houses of the French parliament. 

Hollande says Friday's attacks were planned in Syria, organised in Belgium and carried out in France.

He pays tribute to the "innocents" who were killed in Paris on Friday night, and "young people who have been traumatised" by the attacks.

There are 19 different nationalities among the victims, he says.

Obama has spoken at the G20 Summit in Turkey. He called the attacks in Paris a "terrible and sickening setback", but said that the US-led military coalition was "intensifying" air strikes and "taking out Isil leaders".

Italian police are on the lookout for a black Seat car thought to be connected to the attacks, according to Italian media reports.

Police in Turin have reportedly been told the car has the numberplate GUT 18053. The numberplate, make and colour of the car described in the reports correspond to an alert issued by Paris police on Saturday.

The unconfirmed reports also say the vehicle is thought to have crossed into Italy at Ventimiglia and that a 32-year-old Frenchman is being sought in connection with the car.

Islamic State has issued two new propaganda videos from militants in Iraq, celebrating the attacks in Paris and threatening Washington DC, BBC Monitoring's jihadist media team reports.

The videos feature excerpts from a September 2014 message by IS spokesman Abu-Muhammad al-Adnani, inciting lone wolf attacks in countries party to the US-led coalition against the group. 

IS fighters speaking in the films reiterated incitement to further violence and said the Paris attacks came in revenge for the French government's killing of Muslims.

Belgian authorities have charged two people arrested after the Paris attacks with involvement in terrorism, prosecutors say. 

A statement from the prosecutors office said the pair were charged "with a terrorist act and participation in the activities of a terrorist group".

Five others detained at the weekend were freed without charge, the statement says.

Prosecutors also said a search on Monday of a house in the Brussels district of Molenbeek, which was under police siege for four hours, failed to produce evidence and no arrests were made.
