Charlie Hebdo Protests

French politicians paid tribute Saturday to Charlie Hebdo staff and other victims of the January 2015 Islamist attacks, days after the satirical weekly's latest edition sparked outrage in Iran.

France honoured the victims of militant attacks last year in a thinly attended silent ceremony on Sunday, almost a year to the day when more than a million people marched in Paris to protest killings at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo published a special edition today on the eve of the anniversary of a jihadist attack that wiped out most of its staff, prompting protests from the Vatican over a cover lampooning God.

French police, the heroes of January's jihadist attacks in Paris, now complain they have been forgotten and will hold a rare protest today over a lack of resources to fight an "explosion of violence".

Two of the surviving journalists from French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo brushed off controversy over a literary award Friday.

At least three people were killed in protests in the Niger capital against French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo on Saturday, police sources said, bringing the death toll to eight from two days of violence in the West African country.

At least three people were injured on Friday in clashes between anti-Charlie Hebdo protesters and police outside the French consulate in Pakistan's Karachi, officials said, including an Agence France-Presse photographer who was shot in the back.

Qatar warned today that publishing cartoons of Prophet Mohammed would "fuel hatred and anger", as a leading Muslim body called for peaceful protests against French weekly Charlie Hebdo.

Messages of condolence and defiance over the Paris terrorist attack on a newspaper office spread quickly around the world on Wednesday with thousands taking to the streets to protest the killings and through use of the slogan "Je Suis Charlie" on social media.

A French satirical weekly has published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad to mock the violent reactions around the world to the anti-Muslim film. The editors of Charlie Hebdo say the cartoons may "shock those who want to be shocked." Many fear this could add fuel to the fire as fresh protests continue against the film.
