London [UK], November 10: Britain's King Charles III has led the nation in honouring those who have died in conflict on Remembrance Sunday at a ceremony attended by thousands of veterans.
Charles took centre stage and laid the first wreath at the Cenotaph in recognition of the fallen from conflicts dating back to World War I, and was followed by Prince William.
The king, wearing field marshal uniform with a ceremonial frock coat, saluted before stepping back from the monument after leading a two-minute silence at the annual Remembrance Sunday service in London. His son, dressed in Royal Air Force uniform in the rank of wing commander, also saluted after laying his wreath at the Cenotaph. Prime Minister Keir Starmer also laid a floral tribute, along with senior politicians.
Some 10,000 armed forces veterans took part in the Royal British Legion's march-past in London after the service, including about 20 World War II veterans 80 years on from the conflict's end.
