Speaking of the explosives used during the attack at French national stadium Stade de France, the Paris Prosecutor confirmed they were the same kind on all the suicide bombers.

The attackers, equipped with kalashnikov shot "several hundreds of bullets at different sites of attacks", Molins said, adding that one of vehicles used by the attackers was registered in Belgium and rented by a French.

Ten months after the deadly terrorist attack in January, calmness was broken once again Friday night in the French capital where explosions and shootings took place in Paris 10th and 11th district and its northern suburb.

Earlier Saturday, French President Francois Hollande revealed that "the act of absolute barbarism" was "an act of war" organized from abroad by the Islamic State with internal complicities.

The Islamic State then claimed Saturday morning responsibility of the explosions and shootings in a statement issued online.

France, whose border controls are heightened, has been in state of emergency since Saturday morning.
