Eighty-five people have been killed in Nice, France after a truck drove into the crowds gathered to celebrate Bastille Day last night before firing shots at those trying to flee.
The driver of the truck ploughed into the crowds for 2km before French police shot him dead.
The attack was condemned by the French president Francois Hollande who said it was of "an undeniable terrorist nature".
Bastille Day is a celebration of France's Independence Day.
Condemning the attack "in the strongest terms", the US president Barack Obama also speculated that it appeared to be "a horrific terrorist attack in Nice".
Britain's newly appointed foreign secretary Boris Johnson said he was "shocked and saddened by the appalling events in Nice, and the terrible loss of life".
