Nicola Sturgeon leads 'particularly poignant' Remembrance Sunday service in Edinburgh

Nicola Sturgeon has led Scotland's tributes by laying a wreath at the Remembrance Sunday and parade in Edinburgh earlier today.

Hundreds of people gathered in the capital to honour the nation's war dead including the Lord Provost of the City of Edinburgh Robert Aldridge and the Scottish Parliament's Presiding Officer Alison Johnstone.

Members of the three branches of the Armed Forces marched down the Royal Mile before a short service took place outside the city chambers, led by Rev Calum MacLeod. After the one o'clock gun was fired from Edinburgh Castle at 11am, a two-minute silence was observed.
