Two men attacked a church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, France, killing an 84-year-old priest and leaving another person severely wounded. The two assailants, armed with knives, claimed to be part of the Islamic State and were killed by police as they exited the church. The attack comes less than two weeks after the Bastille Day massacre in Nice, France and amid a marked increase in terrorist attacks in France and Germany. The identities of the attackers has not been released, but French counterterrorism prosecutors are conducting an investigation.
