The world is still coming to terms with one of the biggest tragedies to ever hit the city of Paris.
Six acts of terrorism unfolded in Paris yesterday evening causing nation wide panic. The country is in a state of emergency and the French borders have been closed in accordance with an order implemented by President Francois Hollande.
And as the relief efforts continue to address the death toll which has exceeded 120 in the French capital, sporting icons from various sports around the world have posted tributes to those affected by the wave of terrorism attacks.
Pray for Paris ðŸ™ðŸ¼ðŸ‡«ðŸ‡·

État d'urgence. Appel de l'armée. Fermeture des frontières. Nous sommes donc en état de guerre ...
