The offices of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo have been destroyed by a petrol bomb, French police say.
It comes a day after the publication named the Prophet Muhammad as its "editor-in-chief" for its next issue.
Its cover carried a caricature of the Prophet making a facetious comment.
The magazine said the move was intended to "celebrate" the victory of an Islamist party in last month's Tunisian elections.
Charlie Hebdo's editor is quoted as saying: "We no longer have a newspaper. All our equipment has been destroyed." Full story...
