(FILES) This file photo taken on March 22, 2016 shows shows floral tributes, candles, notes and a drawing by French cartoonist Plantu, at the Place de la Republique in Paris in tribute to the victims following a series of apparently coordinated explosions that ripped through Brussels airport and the metro train, killing at least 14 people in the airport and 20 people in the metro in the latest attacks to target Europe. The City of Paris began on August 1, 2016 a large cleaning operation of the statue in the center of the square of the Republic, whose pedestal has become after each terrorist attack where people deposited flowers, candles or poems in tribute and support. Archivists of the city, as they have done several times in recent months, had to first select the last objects or documents and photograph texts, drawings, graffiti, related to the attacks, before scanning to preserve those testimonies. / AFP PHOTO / JOEL SAGET
