Australians pause to remember war dead

More than a century after the end of World War I, the thousands of Australians killed in the Great War and later conflicts have been remembered across the country.

Australians paused at 11am to mark Remembrance Day and commemorate the 103,000 Australians who lost their lives in wars and peacekeeping operations.

The national event at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra was the first to be held without COVID-19 social restrictions since 2019, attracting hundreds of people including veterans, their families and schoolchildren.
