UK falls silent for Remembrance Sunday – BBC News
The UK has fallen silent as it remembered those who died in past conflicts on Remembrance Sunday.
The Queen was due to attend the National Service of Remembrance in London, but was forced to pull out after spraining her back.
Prince Charles laid a wreath at the Cenotaph on her behalf, as he has done since 2017.
Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Earl and Countess of Wessex and The Princess Royal also attended.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Imagine skinning a man and turning it into a coronation gown, (horrible). Also the joke of saluting with the wrong hand was not funny the first time, was not funny the second time and no matter how many times you do it it is still not funny. I may be wrong but I don't personally find it funny but maybe you've seen somebody laugh at it. If you have then please let me know.

The pathetic BBC still manage to interweave the ‘Windrush Generation’ into today’s coverage. They ‘rebuilt’ Britain after the war apparently. They also describe seeing young people in uniform; CCF, boys and girls brigades as ‘unnerving’. Dimbleby doing the BBC narrative after Hew Edwards disgrace. The BBC can’t just do the job of broadcasting an event.

BBC show some respect and stop referring to the patriot war heroes as far right. Also your reporter referred to the 2 World Wars, don't forget about other recent wars such as The Falklands, etc., which your reporter failed to mention.

I'm surprised the BBC also known as the Islamic Properganda Network even covered this. How sad this was this year, many didn't come out for free of the racists radicals ruling the streets. The poppy sellers who used to proliferate the streets disappeared this year. The barbarians are not at the gate they are among you.

voted ‘Greatest Briton’ of all time. Below is the real history of Churchill. The history of a white supremacist whose hatred for Indians led to four million starving to death. The man who loathed Irish people so much he conceived different ways to terrorise them. A racist thug who waged war on black people across Africa and in Britain. This is the trial of Winston Churchill, the enemy of all humanity.

Glad they didn't wheel out that great war criminal Blair to embarrass the country. From an ex Serviceman who saw service, and pointless death, in Iraq. Thanks to Blair of course.

Best way to remember all those who gave they're lives in order to keep Britain British is do give a foreign (US), salute. I don't think that I'll be joining in with The Remembrance Day Celebrations this year!
