Thousands of people in Kuwait took part in a mass funeral procession for 27 people killed in Friday’s attack against a Shiite mosque. Braving the summer heat, mourners from as far as eastern Saudi Arabia and Bahrain attended the funeral and carried the Kuwaiti flag; others carried a simple black flag to signify mourning. Some in the crowd chanted, “Sunnis and Shiites are brothers!”

French officials said the top suspect in the beheading of a businessman took a “selfie” photo with the slain victim and sent the image via Whats App to a Canadian mobile phone number. French investigators were working to determine the recipient’s identity. Top suspect Yassine Salhi, a truck driver with a history of radical Islamic ties, as well as his sister and wife remained in police custody in the city of Lyon, a day after he allegedly crashed a truck into a U.S.-owned chemical warehouse and hung his employer’s severed head on a factory gate, officials said.
