Days after the ISIS terror attacks in Paris that killed at least 129 people, authorities continue to learn more about the devastating incident and the people who planned it. Here's what we know.
French President Francois Hollande gave a rare speech before a joint session of Parliament at Versailles to proclaim that "France is at war." The European nation is "in a war against terrorism, jihadism, which threatens the whole world," he said.
The suspected mastermind of the attack is Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a twentysomething with ties to gangs in Belgium who has been on the radars of counterterrorism officials for some time.
In a new ISIS video, the terror group says it is targeting Washington, D.C. for one of its next operations.
Defending the U.S. against terrorism is extremely expensive.
A wave of U.S. governors said today that they object to the prospect of Syrian refugees landing in their states. Republicans, in particular, want to keep refugees out.
