two failede were attacks quite recently, one at orly airport, where a man tried to grab the gun of aemale not so and at the museum long ago as well, another attempted attack. these are becoming increasingly frequent, and the police ,hemselves were protesting saying there are underfunded and don't have enough resources just to deal with domestic issues, let alone this problem as well. are they underfunded? the thing is, france has probably a sufficient number of police officers, in the sense that if we compare friends with other european countries such as the u.k., for instance, the police force in france is not necessarily understaffed. it's just that they are not used in the appropriate manner. a lot of them do administrative work, received phone calls, things that in the u.k., for instance, are taking care of by civilians. there are only 20,000 civilians in the french police force, and in the u.k., 60,000. so it's the use of those forces that is not appropriate. another thing police officers thatcomplained about is the criminal justice system is not severe enough with criminals and

and just last month, a man was killed at paris's orly airport after attacking a soldier.0,000 members of the security forces have been deployed for sunday's ballot. regis le sommier, deputy of editor of paris match magazine, joins me live now. a warm welcome. first of all, your reaction to yet another terrorist attack in france? this is, you know, the time of high tension. i mean, we're getting to the end of the presidential campaign and a has—been, you know, in the previous and arrest of two potential terrorist in the town of marseilles, we are expecting them to target some of the candidates and they were taken to their homes which is known for being favoured by terrorist who build suicide belts and so in that, you know, it doesn't really surprise me that the islamic state would like to put on a show at the specific moment because it is critical that france and front, as you said and mentioned in the previous report is the target several times of terror attacks, europe has known a wave of this also but france particularly and this time around, what is very surprising is

it is pretty clear that this was a deliberate targeting of people in uniform, as at orly airport, withat's correct. and, you know, if the attack had gone on for longer, who knows what would have happened? they could have been a transition to more targeting of tourists or the like. and he obviously went for the security services from the outset. a number of attacks that have been linked back to isis have targeted police services. we have the charlie hebdo attack, and others. the security services have been in a special target for a variety of reasons. and sadly, today was no exception. only one attacker at the scene, david. police say they are checking for accomplices. they say that an arrest warrant had been issued for a a possible accomplice. this phrase lone—wolf, there is not really much of a thing like that, is there? there are, but it is rare. people throw that term around a lot. when an individual is in contact with an organisation, it is a good sign is not a lone—wolf attacker. with the boom in social media and the boom in encrypt communications, particularly end to end encrypti
