FRANCE-HISTORY-CEREMONY-PANTHEON-WWII-RESISTANCE
(From left) French Health Minister Marisol Touraine, French Justice Minister Christiane Taubira, French Minister of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy Segolene Royal, French President of the National Assembly Claude Bartolone, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls, French President Francois Hollande, French Senate President Gerard Larcher, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, French Education Najat Vallaud-Belkacem and French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve stand as French militaries carry the four flag-draped caskets representing World War II Resistance fighters Genevieve de Gaulle-Anthonioz, Germaine Tillion, Pierre Brossolette and Jean Zay as they walk towards the Pantheon during a ceremony on May 27, 2015 in Paris. France inducted four Resistance fighters into the illustrious Pantheon mausoleum for their contributions to fighting the Nazis during World War II. The rare honour for the four undercover agents comes at a time when the French government is trying to counter fears of rising anti-Semitism and fortify the nation in the wake of January's jihadist attacks in Paris.
