The Porte de Vincennes siege occurred at a Hypercacher kosher superette in Porte de Vincennes (20th arrondissement of Paris) in the wake of the ''Charlie Hebdo'' shooting two days earlier, and concurrently with the Dammartin-en-Goële hostage crisis in which the two ''Charlie Hebdo'' gunmen were cornered. Amedy Coulibaly had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, and was a close friend of Saïd Kouachi and Chérif Kouachi (whom he had met in jail in 2005), the gunmen in the ''Charlie Hebdo'' attack. Armed with a submachine gun, an assault rifle, and two Tokarev pistols, he entered and attacked the people in the kosher food superette. Coulibaly murdered four Jewish hostages, and held fifteen other hostages during a siege in which he demanded that the Kouachi brothers not be harmed. The police ended the siege by storming the store and killing Coulibaly. ==Hostage-taking== On 9 January 2015, Amedy Coulibaly, who had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, armed with a vz. 58 submachine gun, an AKS-74U assault rifle, and two Russian-made Tokarev pistols, entered and attacked the people in a Hypercacher kosher food superette at Porte de Vincennes in east Paris. He killed four people, all of whom were Jews,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=alert bibi coming )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Four victims of terror attack on kosher supermarket named )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paris shootings: Hostages killed at Jewish supermarket named )〕 and took several hostages.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paris shooting updates / Charlie Hebdo attackers take hostage after car chase )〕 Some media outlets claimed he had a female accomplice, speculated initially to be his common-law wife, Hayat Boumeddiene.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=DIRECT – Porte de Vincennes: plusieurs otages, au moins deux morts )〕 Coulibaly was later confirmed to be the gunman in a shooting in Montrouge the previous day. In that shooting he killed a Municipal Police officer, Clarissa Jean-Philippe.〔 A witness stated, "People were buying things when a man came in with a rifle and started shooting in all directions. I ran out. The shooting continued for several seconds." Coulibaly recorded seven minutes of his attack using a GoPro camera attached his torso, and emailed a copy of the footage using a computer at the supermarket. The video included the deaths of three of the victims.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Paris Terrorist Recorded Video of Massacre at Kosher Market on GoPro Camera: Report )〕 In an interview with BFMTV during an ensuing standoff, Coulibaly stated that he targeted the Jews at the Kosher grocery to defend Muslims, notably Palestinians. Thanks to a mobile phone line that was unintentionally left open, Coulibaly's dialogue with his hostages was recorded and transcribed by RTL (French radio).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=DOCUMENT RTL – Quand Coulibaly essaye de se justifier devant ses otages à l'épicerie casher )〕 Coulibaly said his action was revenge for the Syrian government action and against the Western coalition actions in Mali, Iraq, and Afghanistan.〔 Yohan Cohen, aged 22, and Yoav Hattab, aged 21, were hailed as heroes by their fellow hostages, as they were murdered by Coulibaly while seeking to overcome him and free the other hostages in the store. Coulibaly reportedly abandoned one of his weapons on a counter-top in the store as he entered, after it had jammed. After Coulibaly proceeded to threaten a customer with a small child at the beginning of the attack, Cohen, an employee, attempted to grab the abandoned weapon with the help of Hattab, and take down Coulibaly. When the malfunctioning gun jammed on Cohen at that moment, Coulibaly shot Cohen in the head, and then proceeded to shoot Hattab. The remaining victims of the attack, François-Michel Saada and Philippe Braham, reportedly immediately sought to resist Coulibaly as well.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kosher supermarket attack victims to be laid to rest in Israel )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Porte de Vincennes: Yohan Cohen, "mort en voulant sauver un enfant" )〕 Lassana Bathily, a Malian-born and Muslim〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=This Muslim Clerk At The Paris Kosher Store Risked His Life To Save Jewish Shoppers )〕 shop assistant to whom Yohan Cohen had referred as a "friend" in his personal Facebook page, has also been hailed as a hero in the hostage crisis for hiding people from the gunman and assisting police after his escape.〔(Lassana Bathily: the Paris kosher supermarket hero ) The Guardian, 11 January 2015〕 During the hostage crisis, Bathily helped hide hostages in a cold storage container in the basement.〔 Bathily then tried to call the police, but the line was busy, so he called his friend, a Frenchman named Dennis Mercier, and Mercier alerted the authorities about the hostage situation by flagging down a policeman.〔Suissa, David. ("Lassana Bathily: The Muslim who saved French Jews." ) ''Jewish Journal''. 9 April 2015. 9 April 2015.〕 When Coulibaly opened fire in the store, killing Cohen, Hattab, Saada, and Braham and taking hostages, Bathily led fifteen people into the downstairs cold storage room for safety. Bathily was then able to escape alone by slipping out of the store using elevator equipment. Upon leaving the store, he was immediately handcuffed and arrested by police who suspected him of playing a role in the attack. He was released after an hour and a half. Bathily provided the officers with a key to open the market’s metal blinds〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Muslim Lassana Bathily Hailed As Kosher Market Hero, Saved Several Customers From Attack )〕 Coulibaly was reportedly in contact with the Kouachi brothers as the sieges of both and the brothers progressed simultaneously, and told police that he would kill hostages if the brothers were harmed. Nearby schools were placed under lock-down, and local Jewish businesses were shut down as a precaution. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Porte de Vincennes siege」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
