happening so on top of what has been happening so on top of confirming the number of casualties, which is over 100er meanian soldiers, he said that as a result of the two days of clashes with azerbaijan, they occupied ten square kilometres of armenian territory. he said that that was in addition to another a0 square kilometre that azerbaijan on pied in may 2021. this is really significant what he said, he said if azerbaijan is ready to recognise armenia �*s territorial integrity armenia would do the same. he said he wanted to come to an agreement how to interpret those words, whether it would mean he is giving

up whether it would mean he is giving up on the nagorno—karabakh uncle dave, whichjust for up on the nagorno—karabakh uncle dave, which just for clarity for our viewers, it is an ethnic armenian populated enclave —— whether it would mean he is giving up on the nagorno—karabakh enclave. so people are gathering to decide what to do next and it is quite a significant development. we know from the words of the armenian prime minister that azerbaijan enters the sovereign armenian territory.— azerbaijan enters the sovereign armenian territory. presumably some would interpret _ armenian territory. presumably some would interpret this _ would interpret this straightforwardly as an act of war, of territorial aggression, which would presumably alarm a lot of international players well beyond the immediate surrounding countries? it appears clearly it is a military campaign. earliertoday the it appears clearly it is a military campaign. earlier today the armenian foreign minister invited a diplomatic core anti—explains once

listen in, members of the public are paying their respects. it is a magnificent building, if you have never had the good fortune to go inside, it is one of those strange buildings where you almost lower your voice as you go inside even on a normal busy day when mps and members of the house of lords are thundering back—and—forth with state documents, committee reports and the day to day argy—bargy of political life. another thing which makes this building special is it is the oldest part of westminster still standing, it goes back pretty much 1000 years and is the location for some of the most important historical events in the history of these kingdoms, it is the history of these kingdoms, it is the place where parliamentarians met, tried and condemned to death the very first king charles, king
6:34 pm
charles iii two was executed barely half a mile away on whitehall. —— king charles ii, who was. we are just above the steeple here on the top of the palace of westminster. the parliamentary buildings are not fake but they are only 200 years old because much of westminster burnt down in the early 19th century and they opted for what they called mock gothic, in the modern language we would quality fake gothic, the building is designed to look medieval to try to capture some of the qualities it had in medieval times, but it is the westminster great hall which is the real historic heart of the building. we can see from these aerial shots they had created a security zigzag, a bit like trying to get through security at an airport, you go through security gates, once people are
6:35 pm
through security they will be given a wristband which shows they have had their bags checked and then they go through the last bit of security. this is the other side of the river, lambeth palace, home of the archbishop of canterbury, the effective chief executive of the worldwide anglican church of which of course the queen and now king charles is the head of the church of england which was founded in that row over a royal marriage back in the 16th century between henry viii and the then pope. people are walking over the bridge, there is not a huge queue at this stage, it is likely to get very busy over the weekend and people can queue all night every night between now and monday morning and on monday morning they will arrive, the gates will be finally closed and they will reach the beginning of the ceremony itself. this is on the westminster side, the north side of the river,
6:36 pm
this shows the queues are being slowly filtered to try to keep people moving, to stop them getting bored and restless because it is a very, very long wait. people have been advised there are no toilets or catering facilities, they had to come with one bag and everything they need for a queue of several hours. here are some of the shots from earlier, the ceremonial which led to the queen's catafalque, which travelled from balmoral where the queen died last thursday, then to edinburgh where it was held for people to pay their respects for a number of nights at st giles' cathedral and then it was brought by an raf plane to raf northolt and it was brought down to westminster in a ceremony that lasted much of the afternoon. in her seven decades on the throne, queen elizabeth travelled extensively, straddling the age of steam and that of the jet engine.

6:46 pm
the many girls who followed in her majesty's footsteps. all: i promise that i will do my best to be true to myself i and develop my beliefs, to serve the queen and my community, to help other people and to keep the guide law. a promise which girls have been reciting for decades. and when it comes to doing one's best, they have few better examples than their patron. she was in our club! established more than a century ago, the queen was a member of what was then known as girl guides — a girl—only organisation where they can take part in activities ranging from camping to creative arts. in 1937, when she was just 11 years old, the then princess elizabeth became a guide, and her sister margaret, a brownie. they were part of the 1st buckingham palace guide company. and this group in york feel a kinship with one of their own. she was a girl guide, and so am i. so that we're linked
6:47 pm
by organisation. i started as a rainbow when i was five. and the fact that she's been able to grow up through those steps as well, and the fact that she still was a part of that guiding journey until she died is kind of an inspiration to everyone, i think. it makes me feel really proud, i actually, knowing that our queen, who was the ruler of our country, i did the same things that i've done. i promise that i will do my best to do my duty to god and the queen. and there they are. few know more about the relationship between girlguiding and the queen, than angie goddard. she's been involved with the organisation for most of her life. this is a picture of the queen's wedding cake, the fruit for which came from the girl guides of australia. and although as the wording of the promise and the laws have slightly changed over the years, to be relevant to the girls and young women, i think the queen has always lived by the promise she made and the law she made.
6:48 pm
in 1953, the year after elizabeth became queen, she also became patron of girlguiding and, over the years, met many members. one of them was ally simcock. to serve the queen, help other people and keep the brownie guide law. newsreel: the national garden festival was officially opened i by her majesty the queen. ally met her in 1986, aged nine, as a brownie, when she visited the national garden festival in stoke—on—trent. she just had this presence about her that was just so lovely. she made you feel like you were as important as she was. and it was. . . it was just lovely. and, you know, i was the only nine, but yet here i am, all these years later, it still means a lot to me — enough to feel like i feel like i've lost someone. back in york, the promise the girls recite will change soon, referring to the king rather than the queen. but much like their most famous member, their commitment remains unwavering. navteonhal, bbc news.

6:50 pm
i and cross the river where people have been queueing all afternoon. there was a veryjovial atmosphere, almost festive in some parts where people have come together to share stories and food while they are waiting, but then the procession of people queueing to see the queen passed over the bridge and as people went through security the atmosphere became more muted and inside it is far more solemn but there are plenty of people gathering here at sunset in this beautiful lighted westminster to see the many thousands of people who had turned up thousands of people who had turned up to pay their respects. it is a hugely important occasion for many of the people who have made their journey from across the country and the world, i had been talking to people from across the country and i met one man who had come especially from australia to pay his respects. so i think a time of quiet reflection as people have had a moment to mark their respects to queen elizabeth, the moment where

6:52 pm
from balmoral to buckingham palace, michael bond's much—loved children's character has become a widespread part of tributes to the queen. this is a very special. it's my father's original notebook that he had when he started writing a bear called paddington. and the writer's daughter is no doubt as to why people are using a bear to show they care. one of the last times most of us saw the queen close up was when she did that marvellous sketch during thejubilee celebrations. and because that was the final image of the queen, for many people, that's what they remember, and so they associate her with paddington. i always keep one for emergencies. so do i. i keep mine in here. it's causing the royals some problems. we're hearing they're sort of saying please don't bring any more cuddly toys or marmalade sandwiches. well, it is a bit worrying, really, thinking what's going to happen to them, to all of them. perhaps if people started, instead of leaving the bears,
6:53 pm
which is a wonderful thing to do and a very kind thought, but perhaps leaving messages instead and maybe making a donation to one of the queen's favourite charities. and your father had his own long—standing links with the queen. he did, because my father worked for the bbc and when the queen's coronation took place, my father was actually working on the outside broadcast. so he was at westminster abbey for the queen's coronation. one particular paddington picture has been repeatedly shared on social media. eleanor tomlinson, from willoughby, east yorkshire, first went viral after the platinum jubilee. this week, people have returned to her work. i'm not really an emotional person, but i was very teary looking at the photos, because it's one thing to see something online and being shared and the lovely comments, but to see it in that kind of setting, amongst a sea
6:54 pm
of flowers and tributes, is just something completely else. and at the railway station that gave paddington his name, people believe he's the perfect bear for this moment in history. i think that it's marvellous that the opportunity to engage children with this, as well. and a lot of children had done pictures with the queen and paddington. and one thatjust caught my eye, and i took a picture of it, itjust said, "paddington, i've done my best, now take me to my husband." paddington is this british bear who loves london, who loves marmalade, who loves the queen, loves the royal family. he'sjust...| don't really know what it is _ it's pretty nice, though, isn't it? i think he represents the best in all of us. | the simpler side of humanity. thank you for everything. that's very kind. colin paterson, bbc
