this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. king charles and his three siblings hold a vigilfor their late mother — queen elizabeth — as she lies in state in westminster hall. i'm shaun ley in westminster — where the public are queuing through the night — for their chance to pay respects to queen elizabeth as she lies in state. earlier, king charles ended his tour of the uk in cardiff, addressing members of the welsh parliament, and greeting crowds who came to welcome him.

i take itake up i take up my new duties with immense gratitude _ i take up my new duties with immense gratitude for the privilege of having — gratitude for the privilege of having been able to serve as prince of wales _ in other news, ukraine says a mass burial site has been found outside izyum, days after it was retaken from russian forces. it is only now, after the russians have been pushed out, that the authorities can really investigate and can establish how many victims they left behind. hello and welcome. the queen's four children led by king charles have held a vigil at westminster hall, standing in silence around their late mother's coffin, while members of the public filed past quietly to pay their respects.

earlier, the queue to see the queen lying in state reopened after a pause of several hours, but mourners are being warned of a long wait of more than 22 hours in chilly overnight temperatures. the king and the queen consort, camilla, concluded their uk tour earlier in the day in wales, where the king addressed the senedd in both english and welsh. our coverage starts with this report from our royal correspondent nicholas witchell. they are four people with a unique bond. a king, a princess and two princes to whom she was first and foremost a mother, as well as their queen. charles, anne, edward and andrew entered the hall and approached the catafalque. all of them were in uniform.

the king took his place at the head of the coffin. the duke of york at the foot. the princess royal on one of the flanks, the earl of wessex on the other. they stood with their heads bowed. watching, members of the extended royalfamily, though not princes william and harry. they, with the queen's other grandchildren, will mount a vigil tomorrow evening. the vigil of the sons and daughter lasted a little less than 15 minutes, personal tribute on a very public stage, and all the while, the long lines of spectators continued to file past. for them, they had

been an added reward. i think the strength it took the king and his siblings standing there in front of so many members of the public was really overwhelming. yes, so strong. those children are so strong. on a busy day for the new king, an important speech about diversity and faith. he told faith leaders at buckingham palace that he would be sovereign of all communities. society can only thrive through a clear collective commitment to those vital principles of freedom of consciousness, generosity of spirit and care for others which are, to me, the essence of our nation. i'm determined as king to preserve and promote those principles across all communities and for all beliefs with all my heart.

and while the new king sets the tone for his reign, those who served the queen for many years are reflecting on the public reaction to her death. extraordinarily humbling i think is the first word that comes to mind. it's been so beautifully organised, and this ability for thousands of people to pay this tribute, and i do think that that is an essential part of this ten day mourning period, this contact between us, the people, and our departed queen. on monday, the state funeral will take place, when the queen's coffin will be borne to westminster abbey on a gun carriage. i think it will be hugely important. it will be the culmination

of this long period. it will be, i believe, intensely moving, deeply solemn, but a moment, i think, a real moment of national catharsis. it isn'tjust britain which is marking the queen's passing. the prince and princess of wales have been meeting troops from different commonwealth countries who will be taking part in the state funeral. a solemn day which will mark the end of a long reign. nicholas witchell, bbc news. let's show you some pictures now from westminster. these are the latest, live images coming to us of that queue. tens of thousands waiting their turn to pay their respects inside westminster hall. we are told about 19 and a half hours

now from the start of the queue to the point where someone could expect to enter westminster hall. inside, that very solemn moment when people have the opportunity to file past the queen's coffin and pay their respects. everyone who has been queueing up saying that the long wait to get to this point, absolutely worth it. my colleague shaun ley is in westminster. we are into the last 50 minutes or so until the midnight hour dons and we will have at least the consolation of the lovely peal of bells from the clock known as big ben that the other end of the palace

of westminster which will resonate around here and remind people how close they are to westminster hall. you can see behind me what i have been calling the deceptive part of this operation. in an attempt to prevent any sort of logjam, people are walking backwards and forwards on themselves as you do to get through airport security. that chicane has been taking about two hours for people to clear. it is about 19 and a half hours now from time when you get inside and the time when you get inside and once inside the chicane have once inside the chicane they have perhaps a half—hour beside the river thames up towards the palace of westminster. how long have you been queueing for? 14 hours. the only consolation is you are five and a half hours quicker than the people joining the queue now, if that is any consolation! you are lucky, you are nearly there. as people go round they then go towards the palace of

westminster and at the end in the gloom, you can't see it, the edge of the road is known as millbank and when they walk down that road they will see ahead of them the wonderful sight of the palace of westminster lit up at night, some of the statues and the great imposing figure of oliver cromwell who ended up, after his death, i hasten to add, when he was dug up again by supporters of king charles ii after the restoration, his head was placed on a spike on one of the towers at the other end of the building and stayed there for many months as a symbol of there for many months as a symbol of the restoration of the monarchy. nothing so bloodthirsty here tonight. angus crawford reports on this queue and the experience and the patience required. step by step, yard by yard and mile by mile, still they come in their thousands. a queue so long it's apparently visible from space. here, the very start in southwark park.

guys, sorry, we are close now. so many at one point, the gates were closed to stop overcrowding. we have been told to stop everyone. even that did not put people off. we have come from birmingham, and our plans are quite simply to stay here until the gates open. we're tough. we're not worried about it. we've come to pay our respects. we're going to manage. opening again soon after, the flow carefully regulated. official advice, please don't come yet. closed until tomorrow. thank you for bearing with us, i know it's frustrating. the guidance once more, please delay your visit. pat has been a volunteer for 50 years. i've never seen anything like this. we've planned this for a long time.

we are working with numerous agencies across... so you are in safe hands, you are in good hands. by late afternoon, they treated more than 100 people for mostly minor ailments. day turns to night, the temperatures drop, but the stream of people flows on. this line snakes hundreds of metres around the park. but for those who have been lucky enough to get this far, they have been warned they may not get to westminster hall until lunchtime tomorrow. she served my country for 70 years. i mean, what's two days of my time at most? you know, it's a once—in—a—lifetime opportunity, it's something i can tell my kids, my grandkids. look at everybody who's come together to do this. _ everyone is coming from not even the commonwealth, but from other countries. she was just an icon for everybody. the working week done, the line can only grow. a moment in history no one here is prepared to miss.

people who are able to pay their respects at 6:30am on monday. i can imagine people getting to that point being extremely relieved, thank you very much. earlier on friday, king charles made his first official visit to wales — bringing to an end his tour of the four uk home nations, since becoming monarch. he attended a service of prayer and reflection for the late queen, and visited the welsh parliament — the senedd. his tribute to the queen was partly delivered in the welsh language. i am deeply grateful for the addresses of condolence which so movingly paid tribute to our late sovereign, my beloved mother the queen. gwn y bydd senedd a phobl cymru yn rhannu fy nhristwch. through all the years of her reign, the land of wales could not have been closer to my mother's heart.

roedd lle arbennig i gymru yn ei chalon. well, let's go to wales now where we can join mari william. she's a lecturer in modern history at bangor university. thank you very much for your time, joining us here on bbc news, and what are your reflections on how the queen's death has affected people in wales? ! queen's death has affected people in wales? ~ ., , queen's death has affected people in wales? ~' . , . , queen's death has affected people in wales? ~ ., , ., wales? i think it has partially made --eole wales? i think it has partially made eo - le feel wales? i think it has partially made peeple feel quite — wales? i think it has partially made people feel quite nostalgic, - people feel quite nostalgic, retrospective about the past 70 years. the same in wales as in other parts of britain. obviously every parts of britain. obviously every part of the uk has a slightly different emphasis and relationship with the queen. in wales, the relationship i suppose with the queen started back in the 1930s when

she was princess elizabeth and not then seen as direct their to the throne when she was given a playhouse by the people of wales, the little cottage. and tracking forward to 1946, she was made a member of the bards of the eistedfodd of oils, and later on when she ascended to the throne and was crowned and there was a tour round great excitement and expectation that she would announce charles as the future prince of wales. it was a few years later when that occurred. a fondness for her on a par with other parts of britain, but also an ease with the monarchy

wales. no such national institution. cardiff wasn't even official capital city of wales, so that sense of cohesive nationhood was more faltering back in the 1950s, and i think what we saw today was a very different wales and a confident wales, with a myriad of views on the monarchy as well, and charles is very savvy. he has been prince of wales for many decades, has an interest in the history and culture of wales, and today has big emphasis on using the welsh language, his speech in the senedd today was more or less completely bilingual, almost 50-50, or less completely bilingual, almost 50—50, so he is aware of the role of the language in the welsh identity.

but from his investiture back in the 19605, but from his investiture back in the 1960s, a very hostile time for him in one sense in wales. great way welcomed by many but also some very harsh protests. he is very aware of that and there was a lot of caretaking today.- that and there was a lot of caretaking today. that and there was a lot of caretakin: toda . . ,, , ., , caretaking today. thank you very much. lecturer— caretaking today. thank you very much. lecturer in _ caretaking today. thank you very much. lecturer in modern - caretaking today. thank you very | much. lecturer in modern history caretaking today. thank you very i much. lecturer in modern history at bangor university. let's took a look at other news. and the authorities in ukraine say they've found a large burial site containing more than 400 graves in a city recently recaptured from russian forces. ukrainian officials say most of graves contain the remains of civilians but there were also some soldiers with their hands bound. they were discovered in izyum in the east of the country — which the russians used as a logistics hub for their war effort. ukraine says all the bodies will be exhumed and sent for forensic examination. speaking of the discovery, president zelensky said, "russia leaves death everywhere." our senior international correspondent, orla guerin,

sent this report from izyum — and a warning you may find some of the images distressing. under the pine trees of izyum, a war crimes investigation. this burial site has more than 400 graves, now being examined. the earth starting to give up its secrets. but the prosecutor already claiming russia is responsible for almost all of the dead. "according to our data, almost everyone died because of russian soldiers," says this man. "some were killed, some were tortured, and some were hit in russian air and artillery strikes." he says the very first grave they opened contained the body of a civilian with a rope around his neck.

this knife was recovered from the remains of a soldier. a senior official told us more than 20 troops were found in a single grave with signs of torture. some had their hands bound. for those at the scene, it was hard to take. this is a distressing sight, but ukraine is determined that the world should see it. graves are being opened here one by one. it is only now, after the russians have been pushed out, that the authorities can really investigate and can establish how many victims they left behind. they were buried here in makeshift graves, many marked only with a number. among them, a 65—year—old called lyudmila, who was killed in march in heavy russian shelling.

her husband tells me he had to bury her in the yard. she was brought here in august. now her remains will be disturbed again. "she was beloved," he says. "we have no children, god didn't give us that gift." "but we were in love." emergency service workers, drained by their labours. we can't be sure what killed all of those buried here, but they expect to be digging at more sites like this in areas recently taken back from the russians. orla guerin, bbc news. let's return now to the death of queen elizabeth. the queen must be one of the most

photographed people in the world, but what does it take to get a really iconic photo of the monarch? for nearly two decades, photographer chris jackson has captured some of her majesty's biggest moments for getty pictures agency. including this one, that i'm sure we all remember, with the queen smiling on the balcony of buckingham palace during trooping the colour. and of course her great—grandson prince louis, with a rather different reaction to the jubilee fly—past. chris jackson is the photographer who took that shot and many, many more over almost two decades with the royal family. hejoins me now. chris, thank you so much, and we're looking forward to looking at some of your images as we chat. what is it like to photograph the royal family and what it been like to photograph the queen? i mean, photographing — photograph the queen? i mean, photographing the _ photograph the queen? i mean, photographing the queen - photograph the queen? i mean, photographing the queen has i photograph the queen? i mean, - photographing the queen has always been first and foremost a huge privilege. she has been one of my absolute favourite people to photograph and i think that is because of how incredibly unique she

was. she was an incredible figure and people talk about her aura and i felt that myself, when she came into her room she had an incredible presence. and a lot of that was due to the fact that though it was just another network for her she really understood what her presence meant to other people, for others it could be the most exciting day of their lives. it made it incredibly exciting and then her latter years we saw her less regularly so it meant every occasion was even more exciting and important. she was absolutely amazing to photograph. and let's have a look at what i understand are some of your favourites, and i think the first one we have is a wedding anniversary photograph of the queen and prince philip, and we have it on screen now, and i certainly remember this one well myself. they are 73rd wedding anniversary. talk to us about taking this image. this

photographer, i enjoy so much. find photographer, i en'oy so much. and the colour photographer, i en'oy so much. and the ooour of— photographer, i enjoy so much. and the colour of herjacket and her hat, so vibrant, and we know how the royals are really careful to choose these colours that will allow them to stand out in the crowd, and the next one is another work one, the queen with one of her red boxes, getting on with looking at papers delivered to her by the government. this one taken at sandringham, i believe. , , ., ., , this one taken at sandringham, i believe. , ., , ., ., believe. this is one of my favourite -ictures, believe. this is one of my favourite pictures. for— believe. this is one of my favourite pictures, for good _ believe. this is one of my favourite pictures, for good reason, - believe. this is one of my favourite pictures, for good reason, i- pictures, for good reason, i suppose. taken this year to commemorate her accession day and to kick—start the platinum jubilee, and what it really sums up is quite poignant, it shows the dedication to duty. taken this year, and she worked on that red box every day of the year apart from christmas and easter, and she is enjoying it. she is happy and she is in sandringham

house, and it is somewhere she clearly feels relaxed and happy, and that commitment to duty was there right to the end, meeting liz truss in her final right to the end, meeting liz truss in herfinal days, right to the end, meeting liz truss in her final days, just goes to show that she had some incredible commitment that i think people respect so much, and hopefully that is encapsulated in this photograph. and i know that you have been covering and will cover monday's funeral as well. what has your thought process been, your approach to that? ,., ., , ., ., , thought process been, your approach to that? , ., .,, , to that? good question, it has been a surreal few _ to that? good question, it has been a surreal few days, _ to that? good question, it has been a surreal few days, just _ to that? good question, it has been a surreal few days, just got - to that? good question, it has been a surreal few days, just got back- a surreal few days, just got back from wales with the new king this afternoon, who has received an incredibly warm welcome everywhere he has been. i will neverforget him arriving at buckingham palace, as he came out as king, and again got a very warm welcome. you feel the

importance in recording these historic moments, and it is exciting but it has been pretty nonstop, but the funeral on monday. looking back to the moment i heard the queen sadly passed away in windsor, and there was the incredible rainbow that you might remember. itjust felt like an incredibly... certainly ate moment you will look back on, and as a photographer you were there to capture these moments but sometimes i have to take a step back and look at the moment has a whole and look at the moment has a whole and appreciate what is going on, and that was certainly one of those moments i will never forget. that was certainly one of those moments i will neverforget. but that was certainly one of those moments i will never forget. but it has been a busy few days and it is going to be a hugely sombre, historic occasion on monday so we have that to look to on monday. chris, thank you very much for talking to me. chris jackson, award—winning royal photographerfor award—winning royal photographer for getty award—winning royal photographerfor getty pictures agency. from streets
