The International Skating Union announced in a statement on Saturday to cancel the rest of the figure skating Grand Prix event in France after the deadly attacks left at least 128 people killed on Friday in Paris.

"The Minister of Interior Affairs of France, Bernard Cazeneuve, and the Mayor of Bordeaux, Alain Juppe, have informed the French Figure Skating Federation (FFSG) that the competition at the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating event 'Trophee Eric Bompard 2015' in Bordeaux has to be cancelled due to the state of emergency and national mourning days in France," read the statement signed by ISU Sport Manager Figure Skating Peter Krick and FFSG President Didier Gailhaguet Saturday afternoon.

"The International Skating Union (ISU) has acknowledged the decision," it added. "The International Skating Union and the French Figure Skating Federation express their deepest sympathy to the victims of the despicable terrorist attacks in Paris on November 13."
