Notre Dame cathedral has caught fire, according to the Parisian fire service and eyewitnesses.
Footage posted online shows a large fire engulfing the upper part of the cathedral, with the flames licking around its two bell towers.
A major operation was under way, the fire department added, while a city hall spokesman said on Twitter that the area was being cleared.
Officials in Paris said the fire could be linked to renovation works being carried out at the cathedral.
It comes after France's Saint Sulpice church , used in the filming of Dan Browns Da Vinci Code thriller, caught fire in March.

Yep, I'd been watching for multiple streams of water hitting the fire from the first, and almost nothing. By now most combustible material has probably burned. The smoke is a small fraction of what it was an hour ago, and that one fire hose didn't reduce it that much.
Of course, I think they already know who did this..this is Jihad plain and simple..but the french knew they were snakes before they let them in and they allowed them in anyway
............... ouch
France has been letting Islamics in for decades.
At first they just rioted and burned cars, no non muslim would go in to stop them
Now there are more of them and so they act up more
Poland does not let any muslims into their country
They have NO terrorist attacks
there is no doubt in my mind at all. The cathedral was clearly targeted by muslims.
Like the 9/11 "renovations" at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon...
Fortunately, brave Americans put down one of the "renovation" crews in Pennsylvania like the rabid dogs that they are.
Yes, massive is the right term. If it takes every fire brigade in Paris they need to get this under control!
“Just heard that filthy son of a bitch Shepherd Smith rudely cut off a French politician who was about to insinuate this was perhaps the work of the usual suspects”.
I saw that just as I was coming into the room. Yes, Smith is a POS and a real SOB.
Linda Sarsour had a muzzgasm at the news...
"When some people did something to church after church,
and burnt alive Frenchmen and women,
.... where WERE the French police?"
And if an investigation does prove moslems did it, would they ever admit it or just say... “Some people did something...”.
Sad we’ve reached a point in history where we cannot even believe the news media or politicians on anything anymore.
The skills have been rediscovered enough times. If the people will it, it will get done.

Faux News Sucks when it comes to big stories.
wow ....
You are entirely correct.
I agree, and the meaning is not only for Catholics but for all of Christianity and Western Civilization.
Yikes, that pic looks like it belongs in some post-apocalyptic video game, not real life.
I think Notre Dame rubble will be cleared away and plans for a huge mosque to replace it will be drawn up.
