Dr Philippe Nuss has been helping survivors in the Saint-Antoine hospital. He spoke about how the afflicted were confused by the terrorists' irrational behaviour.

He told 5 live Daily: "For instance one of the victims told me that one of the attackers was giving him advice to lean on the floor, as if he wanted to protect him while the other was shooting - this was another type of trauma."
