Several police raids have been conducted in Paris after a "terrorist" tried to enter the Louvre museum carrying machetes.
The suspect has been identified as 29-year-old Abdullah Reda Refaei al-Hamamy, who lives in the United Arab Emirates but is originally from Egypt, according to security sources.
He was shot five times after lunging at four French soldiers outside the Paris landmark.
The assailant shouted "Allahu Akbar" while holding a machete in each hand, and prosecutors said he was hovering between life and death after being subdued by one of the patrolmen.
