PARIS:
British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Francois Hollande laid a wreath at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris on Monday where 90 people were killed by terrorists.

The two leaders went on to have talks at the Elysee Palace at which Hollande was expected to tell Cameron of his plans for an international coalition to crush Islamic State (IS) after the terrorist group claimed responsibility for the Paris carnage.
Cameron is believed to be pushing to secure parliamentary support for a possible motion to launch British air strikes on IS targets in Syria.
