Prime Minister Scott Morrison has condemned Thursday’s Islamic terrorist attack at a French church and pledged that Australia stands with France to defend freedom.

A knife-wielding man allegedly beheaded an elderly woman who had come to pray and reportedly killed two others at the Notre Dame church in Nice on Thursday. Two other attacks also occurred in the city of Avignon and the French embassy in Saudi Arabia.
