(CNN)[Breaking news update, published at 7:49 a.m. ET]

French President Francois Hollande tells reporters that Tuesday's deadly attack at a Catholic church in Normandy was carried out by "by two terrorists in the name of Daesh" -- another name for ISIS.

A Catholic priest was killed during an attack on a church during morning mass in Normandy on Tuesday, church officials say, in the latest violent act to roil France.

The Rev. Jacques Hamel, 84, was killed when two men took five people hostage in the town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, Dominique Lebrun, the Archbishop of Rouen, said in a statement posted on the diocese website.

Besides the slain priest, two nuns and two churchgoers had been taken hostage, CNN French affiliate BFMTV reported.

One of the hostages was seriously wounded, and is "between life and death," French Interior Ministry spokesman Pierre-Henry Brandet told reporters.
The situation ended when the two attackers were shot dead by police, Brandet said.

"The two killers came out and they were neutralized," he said.

5:10 pm.

A nun who was in the church during Tuesday's attack said the 86-year-old priest was forced to the ground before his throat was slit.
"They forced him to his knees. He wanted to defend himself. And that's when the tragedy happened," said the nun, identified as Sister Danielle.

"They recorded themselves. They did a sort of sermon around the altar, in Arabic. It's a horror," she told BFM television.

Of her fallen colleague, she said: "He was a great priest."

4:10 p.m.

An Italian politician is urging Pope Francis to put the slain French priest, the Rev. Jacque Hamel, on a fast track for sainthood.

Roberto Maroni, the president of the Lombard region, said in an appeal circulated on social media that "Father Jacques is a martyr of faith" and requested that the pope "immediately proclaim him St. Jacques."

Shortly after the appeal, the hashtage #santosubito, which translates as "saint immediately," began circulating on Twitter.

The canonization process is a lengthy one involving two miracles attributed to the person's intercession, but in the case of a martyr only one miracle is needed, after beatification. There must first be a declaration by the Vatican that the person indeed died for the faith.

Japan knife attack suspect: 'It’s better that the disabled disappear'

TOKYO – An apparently disturbed man arrested in a stabbing rampage at a care facility for mentally disabled people near Tokyo on Tuesday had earlier warned authorities that he might carry out the attack, according to police and local news media.

At least 19 are dead and 26 injured after the man, a former employee, allegedly broke into the facility early Tuesday and went room to room stabbing patients with a knife. He was arrested without incident after he turned himself in at a police station nearby, according to Kyodo News Service.
It is one of the worst mass killings in Japan since World War II.

Kyodo News Service said police arrested a 26-year-old man who turned himself in at a nearby police station at about 3 a.m. Tuesday, local time.
Police said the man, identified as Satoshi Uematsu, told them “I did it,” and “It’s better that the disabled disappear,” according to Kyodo.
Police said Uematsu entered the facility at about 2:10 a.m., Tuesday, local time, by breaking a ground floor window with a hammer, then apparently went room to room stabbing anyone he saw. Police said Uematsu later drove himself to a police station where he surrendered without incident.

He had a bag full of knives and other edged tools, some with bloodstains, when he turned himself in, Kyodo reported.
Kanagawa Prefectural officials said at a news conference that Uematsu worked at the care facility from 2012 to February 2016 and that he left “for personal reasons.” No further details were available.

The attack took place at the Tsukui Yamayuri En (Tsukui Lily Garden), a residential home for disabled people run by Kanagawa Prefecture, about 50 kilometers (31 miles) outside Tokyo. Officials said about 150 people, ranging in age from 19 to 75, live at the care home.
According to police, Uematsu delivered a handwritten letter to the official residence of the House of Representatives speaker in February, at about the time he left his job, in which he suggested that he was planning to kill people at the facility. He indicated the attack would take place at night, when fewer staff were on duty.

“I dream of a world where the disabled could die in peace,” Uematsu wrote in the letter. “I will carry out the plan without hurting the staffers, and I will turn myself in after I kill the disabled.”

In the letter, he said he felt “sorry” for people with disabilities, many of whom were bound to wheelchairs for life. He wrote that many of them had no contact with family members.
Uematsu was hospitalized until March on the grounds that he was a threat to others; no further details on his condition or why he was released were available Tuesday.

The care facility is located in a largely residential area, with a school and amusement park nearby.
Violent crime is relatively rare in Japan and private gun ownership is severely restricted.
Twelve people were killed and 50 injured when religious cultists released poison gas in the Tokyo subway system in March 1995. In 2008, a man rammed a truck into pedestrians in the popular Akihabara electronics district, then began stabbing people with a knife; seven people died in that incident.

Television news footage Tuesday showed dozens of police cars and ambulances at the Kanagawa facility, along with a large orange police crime-scene tent and scores of journalists. Local news media reported that family members and neighbors began gathering at the facility early Friday, with some complaining that they had received no information from officials.

Until Saturday, Kabul residents mostly knew of Islamic State’s operations in Afghanistan through reports of pockets of militants fighting under that name in some eastern districts. They had never felt their presence up close.

On Saturday, that appears to have changed. According to the group’s news agency, Amaq, it was Isis who sent two suicide bombers into a crowd of peaceful, civilian protesters, killing at least 80 and wounding more than 200. The statement called the crowd “a Shia gathering”. Most of the protesters were members of the ethnic Hazara minority.

The Taliban were quick to condemn what was one of the deadliest single attacks in Afghanistan since 2001. While the exact number of attackers or blasts was unknown, Afghan authorities confirmed that Isis was behind the bombings.

If true, it would be Isis’s first attack on a civilian crowd in Kabul, and its largest ever attack in Afghanistan, only months after the Afghan president boasted that the country would be a “graveyard” for Isis.

Michael Kugelman, South Asia associate at the Wilson Center, said the attack bore the hallmarks of Isis and was likely to have been carried out by former Taliban “aligned with Isis and determined to demonstrate their clout”.

Evidence has not been put forth of any direct links between the attackers and Isis in Iraq or Syria.


(terrorists are killing their own people.....these radicals won't stop)
