France on Wednesday opened the criminal trial of 20 people accused of involvement in the deadly Islamic State (IS) attacks in Paris that killed 130 people and injured more than 400 others nearly six years ago.
In what was the largest attack on French soil since World War II, nine gunmen and suicide bombers on Nov. 13, 2015, attacked the Bataclan music hall, a football stadium, and half a dozen bars and restaurants in the heart of Paris.
