Cbs correspondent elaine cobbe is in paris for us tonight. Elaine. Reporter scott, at the soccer stadium north of paris, the stade de france, there were several explosions heard, and were now hearing reports here that Police Believe there may have been suicide bombers behind those explosions. As you said, the crowds at that friendly match between france and germany went on to the field, hoping for safety there. Evacuated. Around the same time, in the east of paris, shots were fired at a restaurant. Terrified diners there fled the scene, and not far away, at the concert hall, the popular concert hall, the bataclan, a hostage situation is still under way. Were hearing around 100 people still being held there, and, of course, the area where the Charlie Hebdo shootings took place in january. President hollande has already he has declared a state of emergency. And the antihef Terror Police have been put in charge of the investigation. That shows just how seriously the french government is taking this. Pelley elaine, what is it like to be a citizen of paris tonight . Reporter its fridays night, scott. Usually, the city is teeming. There are cars around that Time Streaming in from the suburbs as people go to nightclub, to late theater. In the east of paris, it would have been very full. But even as i came, the west of paris, far away from it, very few cars on the road. But in the east, theyve evacuated streets. Theyve closed down the metros. Much of the Metro Network is shut down for the evening. Pelley elaine cobbe elaine, thank you very much. It was just a few minutes ago that president obama spoke about the attacks at the white house. We are reminded in this time liberte and egalite, and fraternite are not only values that the french people care so deeply about but they are values that we share. And those values are going to endure far beyond any act of terrorism or the hateful vision of those who perpetrated the crimes this evening. Were going to do whatever it takes to work with the french people and with nations around the world to bring these terrorists to justice. Pelley the president earlier this evening. Chip reid is at the white house. Chip. Reporter scott, the president also called the attacks heartbreaking, and he said that he talked with president hollande, by coincidence, earlier today because theres a g20 economic summit in turkey. The president is scheduled to leave for that summit tomorrow. He did not say whether those plans are still on. And perhaps more importantly, in just over two weeks, president obama is scheduled to go to paris for a massive climate that is something that its still not clear whether that could possibly be postponed. But, scott, as you can imagine, with more than 100 World Leaders there, it will be a security nightmare. Pelley chip reid at the white house. Thank you, chip. We spoke a little bit earlier this evening with Stephen Sanchez who is a freelance journalist in paris. Mr. Sanchez, what did you see . What did you hear . Reporter well, i was about three blocks away from the soccer stadium, when i heard one or two loud explosions. It may have been one and i may have been just hearing an echo, but what sounded like two lowj loudexplosions. I was walking out of a restaurant and i was getting ready to walk back to my hotel when i heard the explosion. I started walking in the direction they thought the explosion had came from. I started walking that way when i saw just crowds of people trying to run out of the stadium as the police were getting there. Pelley what else did you see in those moments after the i saw the president of france. They were whisking him away. He was at the game, and he got out within, id say, maybe a minute or two. Pelley what about the explosion . What did it sound like . Was it a pop or was it more of a thunderous kind of blast . Blast. Reporter it sounded more like a thunderous blast. At first i initially thought it may have been fireworks because i anyhow the game was going on tonight and i thought the game might have just finished. I looked to the sky after i heard the loud bang. There were no fireworks and thats when i knew it had to be something pretty serious. Pelley freelance reporter Stephen Sanchez tonight. Thank you, stephen. We are getting reports just now of automatic gunfire and more concert hall. It was attacked earlier this evening by the terrorists. This is where we understood there were a number of hostages being held. Apparently, French Forces are engaged with terrorists at the concert hall. Witnesses are reporting automatic gunfire and explosions there right now. Michael morrell is a former number two at the c. I. A. He is our cbs news Senior Security contributor. Michael, what do you make of this so far . Reporter scott, one of the things that strikes me is the operationallecurity here. Were talking about a large number of operatives conducting multiple simultaneous attacks and staying under the radar of french intelligence and french security. That is very difficult to do. Its a level of sophistication we havent seen since the london bombings. Pelley and what does that level of sophistication tell you about who might be responsible . I think, scott, the key question on responsibility comes down to this was this a group of selfradicalized individuals who came together and decided to do this on their own, possibly meeting in a mosque or meeting in prison . Or was this directed from overseas by either isis or by al qaeda in yemen . Isis has been working on its capability to conduct this kind of attack in europe, and you remember, that al qaeda in yemen was behind the Charlie Hebdo attack. Pelley the Charlie Hebdo attack was back in january. 17 people were killed by three gunmen who were islamic radicals, and then in august, we recall, three americans stopped a man with a machine gun on a train in france, and prevented that terrorist attack, which france . And why now . So i think, you know, france is a leader in the coalition, in the fight against isis. It is also in europe one of the easiest capitals to get to. So i think it tend to it tend to be a focus. Pelley michael morrell, former number two at the c. I. A. , michael, thank you very much. We are getting reports now that france has said that schools will be closed in the paris region. A number of subway lines in paris have been closed as well tonight. At the united nations, the secretarygeneral ban ki moon condemned the attacks. He described them as despicable terrorist attacks. President obamaaarlier today at the white house said this was not just an attack on france. It was an attack on all humanity. Before we move on to other news, a quick recap. Multiple terrorist attacks unfolding in paris tonight. At least 60 people have been killed. Many more are wounded. Those numbers are certain to change as we get more certainty about what has happened. But three attacks at a theater, a so, stadium, and a restaurant paris. A little bit later in the broadcast, we will have all of the latest developments. Now, in another important story today, the pentagon says it appears that the isis executioner known as jihadi john was killed by a u. S. Drone strike in raqqa, syria, which is an isis stronghold. Once again, heres chip reid. Reporter with his angry rants and masked face, Mohammed Emwazi became a global symbol of the barbaric brutality of isis. Our knife will continue to strike the next of your people. Reporter in 2014, for all the horrified world to see, jihadi john, as he became known, beheaded several westerners, including three americans, journalist james foley and stephen sot love, and aid worker peter kasig. This guy was a human animal, and killing him is probably making the world a little bit better place. Reporter army colonel Steven Warren in baghdad today said the pentagon is, reasonably certain emwazi was killed last night by a hellfire near the isis stronghold of rack asyria. Emwazi was born in kuwait but grew up mostly in london where he became radicalized. He left for syria in 2013. Critics of the Obama Administration have long argued it is doing far too little to fight isis, but today white house spokesman josh ernest usedd the t tgeting o o emwazaz to push back. I think it is clear evidence that we are making important progress in one element of our strategy, which is to apply pressure to the isil leadership. Reporter outside his New Hampshire home, james foleys differently. Bombing him wont bring jim back. It wont change the war. You know. Were we need to eliminate isis. Not jihadi john, okay . Reporter president obama did not specifically order this attack because the operation was in the hands of the pentagon. And, scott, ey say it could be days before they have definitive proof that jihadi john is dead. Pelley chip reid at the white house. Chip, thanks very much. Now more on the unfolding terrorist attacks in paris. We have a witness to tonights events. His name is julian pierce. He spoke earlier tonight to cnn. Julian, what did you see . They reloaded three or f fr titis, their weapons. And they they didnt shout anything. They didnt say anything. They were masked. They were wearing black clothes, andhey were shooting at people on the the floor, and i was luckily at the top of the stage, so people started to try to escape, to walk on people on the floor, and try too find the exit. And i found an exit when the in the meantime. And i climbed on the on the stage, and we found an exit. And when i when i went on the street, i see 20 to 25 bodies lying on the floor. And people were very badly injured, gunshot wounds. And i and i took a small girl, a teenager. She was she was bleeding very badly, and i ran with her for, like, 200 meters, and i found a cab, a taxi, and i lead her in and i said to the cab driver, gto hosostal. And i havee some friends right now w w are still insnse the bataclan who are hiding because theyre not sure if there is any terrorist in there. And theyre hiding in some kind of room in the dark, and they texted me, and theyre very afraid, of course. Pelley now, the theater where julienne pierce was evacuated from is apparently at this moment the scece of an Ongoing Police assaultlt this is the theater where we were told there could be as many as 100 hostages. The french president has confirmed that an assault is under way by French Forces at that theater, the bataclan concert hall, where the hostages were being held. Witnesses near the concert hall have reported automatic weapons fire and explosions in the area, but wewe do not have any more than that. Elaine cobbe is our correspondent in paris, and she is joining us now again live. Elaine, what are you hearing . Reporter scott, french media are reporting that there is, indeed, an assault under way at the bataclan where the hostages were being held. Some reports are saying that several people have already been released from the c ccert hall, that they have been tatan out by police. There have been reports of explosions and shooting there. Still unclear if its over. Its still under way. But as we said earlier, the antiTerror Police have taken charge of the investigation here. There are intervention teams all around the area. Theyve been block roads across the area where the bataclan is and where that restaurant was around republique and all the metrostations in the area are now closed and trains are not running through there. Pelley elaine cobbe reporting for us live from paris. The french president is pleading with the residents of paris to stay in their homes, warning them that Police Actions are ongoing against the terrorists. To quickly recap, at least 60 people have been killed in multiple terrorist attacks on the city of paris tonight. Ree entertainment sites a soccer s sdium, a concert hall, and a restaurant were attackedd simultaneously. Many people have been wounded and at this moment, there appears to be a Police Assault on the concert hall in an effort to free as many as 100 hostages.

Shes going to have to withstand that pressure and also try to lock in with her performance, the good performance people thought she had in the first debate. Elections are about choices, and debates are about distinctions, and thats the challenge for senator sanders and governor omalley. They have to show voters through this debate what the difference is and why theyd be a better president than hillary clinton. Pelley nancy cordes, how are you going to approach the questioning . R rorter well, well, obviously, be asking them about foreign policy, scott. And we want t get at some of their differences in domestic policy as well, and how they would enact those policies. You know, eight years ago, president obama stood on debate stages just like this one and said that he would bridge the divide. But if anything, things have gotten worse in washington. So how would they lead differently . Republicans say all of their youd have to raise taxes to pay for them. So how would they fund some of these very ambitiousus proposals.
