(Reuters) - An attacker with a knife killed two people and wounded several others at a church in Nice on Thursday, police said.

The incident, which the Mediterranean city's mayor described as terrorism, took place less than two weeks after the beheading of middle school teacher Samuel Paty by a man of Chechen origin.
