As many as 120 people were being held captive inside the Bataclan after a gunmen stormed a gig by rock band Eagles of Death Metal.

It is believed the incident is now over.

The two attackers are said to have been suicide bombers and "blew themselves up" as police approached.

Reporter Peter Allen, who is based in Paris, told Sky News: "There is a lot of police activity. They had to move in.

"Sadly it's a scene of carnage and many have died inside as well.

"They felt they had to go straight in with reports of people dying inside the concert hall."

The attack comes in a spate of terrorist attacks across the capital just hours after the death of ISIS executioner Jihadi John.

Sources in France have said how hostages were beng "slaughtered one-by-one" during the gig.

Benjamin Cazenoves reports: "There are still survivors inside the Bataclan. They're killing everyone one-by-one":

It is believed several explosions had gone off outside the building.

Police later stormed the place before the attackers detonated their explosive belts.
