France Marks 10 Years Since Paris Attacks With New Memorial and Official Tributes

Overview

• President Emmanuel Macron led ceremonies at attack sites, and Paris inaugurated a Saint-Gervais memorial inscribed with victims’ names.
• French anti-terror prosecutors indicted Maëva B., the former partner of Salah Abdeslam, for terrorist conspiracy, citing clear radicalization.
• Authorities say the Islamic State’s core is weaker but the risk from rapidly radicalizing individuals remains high, with Europol reporting 889 terrorism-related arrests in the EU from 2022 to 2024.
• Victim associations say two survivors later died by suicide, which they contend raises the death toll to 132.
• Prosecutors are advancing a restorative-justice process for terrorism cases, and Abdeslam’s lawyer says he wishes to participate.
