the attacks on paris calling it an attack on all humanity and promises the united states will do whatever it takes to help. >> this is a heartbreaking situation. obviously those of us here in the united states know what it's like. we've gone through these kinds of episodes ourselves, and whenever these kinds of assaults happened, we've always been able to count on the french people to stand with us. they have been an extraordinary counterterrorism partner, and we intend to be there with them in that same fashion. >> we are now beginning to hear from some of the survivors from the evening of terror. one woman describes the scene friend. >> all of a sudden, we had huge gunshots, and glass was coming through the window. so we ducked onto the floor with all of the other diners, and we heard numerous more gunshots coming through the

window and shards of dallas were hitting people lying down on the floor. i was holding a woman's arm next to me, and when i suddenly heard what was happening and asking around if people were okay, i realized that she had been fatally wounded. she had been shot in the chest. there was blood all around here, and there were other people in the restaurant as well who had been fatally injured. >> we are also hearing stories of survival this morning. this man here says his cell phone prevented him from seriously injured or even killed. he claims he was returning to his car near the stadium when the second explosion happened and the shrapnel shattered his cell phone. he also sustained a broken toe, but he says it is a miracle that he's alive. secretary of state meanwhile john kerry calls the attacks evil and vial. the u.s. is making every effort to account for americans in the city.
