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