AUSTRALIA will not increase the current terror alert level at home from "high" in the wake of the Paris massacre.
Speaking in Berlin where he's meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull confirmed the current advice from security agencies was it would only be increased to "extreme" in the event that agencies had information an attack on home soil was imminent or had occurred.
The current terror alert level indicates that "a terror attack is likely" in Australia and has been at that level since   September last year.
Mr Turnbull confirmed there are no reports to date of Australians killed. One Hobart woman was injured. Another Australian man who was near the attacks had contacted consular officials but was unharmed.
Declaring the horrific massacre, the "work of the devil" Mr Turnbull said Australia stood in solidarity with France.
"Yet again we have seen a shocking terrorist attack in Paris. France, the home of freedom, has been ass-aulted by terrorists determined to att-ack and suppress freedom not just in France but throughout the world," he said.
"This is an attack, as President Obama has said, on all humanity. On behalf of the Australian people, I extend our deep sympathy to the people of France.
"Our solidarity is with them too. When the French people left the stadium after that shocking attack, they were not cowed.
"They sang their national anthem proudly and that is how all free people should respond to these assaults.
"Freedom stands up for itself, stands up for its values in the face of terrorism." Mr Turnbull confirmed he had held talks with spy agency ASIO, the Federal Police, the Foreign Minister, the Attorney-General and the Justice Minister.
"The advice I have from the Federal Police and from ASIO is that the alert level remains as it has been since   September last year," he said.
"The security agencies do not believe that there is any evidence at the moment to justify any increase in that alert level. So we should be reassured by that.
"But above all, we should be reassured, Australians should be reassured, that we have the finest security agencies in the world. We have a government that is utterly committed to protecting the safety of Australians at home and so far as we can abroad." He is still planning to attend the G20 summit, which is likely to go ahead despite the attacks.French President Francois Hollande has pulled out but no other leaders have indicated they will not go.
