## Transcript

[ FOREIGN ] I have just returned from Rue de Trevise where, as you know, there has been an explosion likely from accidental causes. Gas tanks exploded as our fire fighters were attempting to stabilize the situation. There is a heavy toll. I will not get into details at the moment as we are awaiting further reports. Reports. The explosion was quite spectacular. It took place while some people were in the street and some inside the building so the toll will be heavy. We can see the French model is working: as we had 200 firefighters and 100 police officers on location shortly after the blast occurred.

Paris Prosecutors, the Prime Minster, and Paris Mayor have been on site. We immediately opened a shelter in Paris City Hall and will have solutions for immediate re- housing soon.
