French President Francois Hollande promises he will destroy the 'army of fanatics' responsible for the Paris attacks. "We'll respond to attacks by 'singing more songs', going to concerts, stadiums," he said at the national memorial service for the 130 people who died in the attacks two weeks ago.

Around 1,000 people are attending the service in central Paris, including Hollande, survivors of the attacks and victims' families.

A minute's silence has been held and the names of all the victims read out.

Attackers with assault rifles and suicide belts targeted a number of sites in the capital. Islamic State later said it was behind the assault.
