Two brothers who attacked French magazine Charlie Hebdo have been killed in a police siege.
The attack was said to avenge the honor of Prophet Muhammad by the Al Qaeda in Yemen, who directed it.
France president Francois Hollande however warned citizens to remain watchful.
“The threats facing France are not finished,” he said. “We must be vigilant,” he said — and defiant. “We are a free people who cave to no pressure.”
The worst terrorist violence France has seen in decades killed at least 20 people, including the three gunmen. A fourth suspect — the common law wife of the market attacker — was still at large and believed to be armed.
Al-Qaida's branch in Yemen said it directed the attack against the publication Charlie Hebdo to avenge the honor of the Prophet Muhammad, a frequent target of the weekly's satire.
