"The Assembly reiterates its condemnation of these jihad attacks, which target France because of its laudable participation in the just war against the Islamic State, recalling that since November 2015, France has repeatedly suffered further such atrocities. The Assembly likewise recalls that the French Government reports that the state of emergency helped intelligence agencies to thwart more than 30 attacks.".
