Nice is observing a decade of remembrance on Tuesday for the 86 people killed and hundreds more injured when a truck was deliberately driven into crowds on the Promenade des Anglais during Bastille Day celebrations in 2016. French President Emmanuel Macron is due to preside over an evening memorial ceremony featuring a display of 2,016 drones and 86 columns of light projected across the city at the exact minute the attack ended.
The anniversary has prompted tributes woven into civic life. Nice Mayor Eric Ciotti has urged FIFA to hold a minute of silence before France's World Cup semi-final, while OGC Nice supporters sing in the 86th minute of every home match. A commemorative exhibition is also open at the Villa Masséna.
For survivors, the toll endures. Victims and their families continue to grapple with the physical and psychological aftermath of the assault.
