3.7 million joined in Paris Sunday to march against terrorism, marking the largest gathering in the history of France.
The death toll of last week’s assault numbers 17.

France’s president, Francois Hollande, was joined by world leaders such as German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy.

Muslims held signs reading “We are all Muslims,” part of a renewed effort to denounce radicalism. Others held signs with “We are all French,” to promote unity.
