PARIS, March 23 (Xinhua) -- French Prime Minister Bernard Cazeneuve on Thursday warned that the terror risk remained "extremely high", pledging full government mobilization to ensure safety at home.
"The (terror) threat on French territory is extremely high and justifies the sate of emergency's extension until July 15," Cazeneuve said.
"The attack in London, like the one that was avoided at Orly airport last Saturday, demonstrated the need of greater vigilance.
"The government is fully mobilized until the last minute of (its governing period). Everyone is acting to increase the protection of France," he added.
Following the latest London attack which left three dead and scores of injured people, among them three French nationals, Cazeneuve expressed "compassion, friendship and unwavering solidarity" with Britain.
Some 230 people had been killed in terrorist attacks in France since 2015, with 17 attacks being foiled in 2016 and five since the beginning of this year, according to Cazeneuve.
