PARIS (AFP) - France observed a minute of silence Thursday, broken only by church bells, in honour of the 12 people killed by jihadists at a magazine known for publishing cartoons deemed offensive to Islam.
At midday (1100 GMT), crowds of people stood silently in public squares, schools and outside official buildings. Bells tolled at Paris' Notre Dame cathedral and in churches across the country.
