The mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, says she is planning a ‘major international conference of donors’ to help raise cash in a bid to rebuild the famous Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
Firefighters finally extinguished the blaze at Notre Dame, after battling the flames for nine hours.
The fire broke out Monday evening and raged for several hours with 400 firefighters attempting to bring it under control.
