Hollande Condemns 'Odious' Quebec Attack
French President Francois Hollande
Paris - Arab Today
French President Francois Hollande on Monday condemned "in the strongest possible terms" what he called an "odious attack" in Quebec City that claimed six lives.
Eight more people were injured after gunmen opened fire at a Quebec City mosque late Sunday, a shooting Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said was a "terrorist attack."
"It's the spirit of peace and openness of the people of Quebec that the terrorists wanted to hit," added Hollande.
Canadian police have arrested two suspects following the attack that police are also treating as an act of terrorism.
According to witnesses interviewed on local television, two masked gunmen burst into the cultural centre around 7:15 pm (0015 GMT) on Sunday.
The motive of the attack was not immediately clear.--AFP

Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
