What happened when the new Charlie Hebdo went on sale

People in Paris have been queuing since the early hours of the morning to buy the new edition of Charlie Hebdo magazine.

Despite an unprecedented print run of 3million - it normally sells around 60,000 - that has since been extended to 5million, many newsagents had early sold out by 7am, according to The Independent's man in Paris, John Lichfield.

Today's edition is the first to be printed since the massacre at the magazine's offices last week in which 12 people died.

The magazine is being called the "survivors' edition" - which features an image of the Prophet Mohamed on the front cover - and is being distributed in French, English, Italian, Spanish, Turkish and Arabic.

The cartoon on the front depicts the prophet holding up a ‘Je suis Charlie’ (‘I am Charlie’) sign under the words: ‘Tout est pardonne’ (‘All is forgiven’).
