IS publications do not refer to Nice attackPolice officers and rescue workers stand near a van that ploughed into a crowd leaving a fireworks display in the French Riviera town of Nice. Despite IS silence over responsibility for Thursday’s killings in Nice, supporters of the jihadist group used internet social networks to hail the attack. (AFP PHOTO / VALERY HACHE)Publications issued by the Islamic State jihadist group on Friday make no reference to the truck attack in the French city of Nice that killed at least 84 people. Lahouaiej-Bouhlel — a resident of Nice — was shot dead by police after the attack in which at least 10 children and teenagers were among the dead. Late on Thursday, a Tunisian named as Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel rammed a truck into a Bastille Day crowd in the coastal French city after a firework display.
