earlier today, a royal procession brought the queen's coffin to westminster hall, where the late monarch is now wine. in state, thousands of already begun filing past the call in to say a final farewell. they're trying to do this as many as possible ahead of the queen's funeral, which is scheduled for monday. ah, this is the moment the queen left the palace for the last time, talked with the imperial crown. the monarch wore on rare formal occasions. queen elizabeth's coffin made its way through central london on a horse drawn carriage. at this viewpoint, many stood waiting to catch a glimpse. the procession moved past them at only $75.00 steps per minute. the pace typically used for sombre occasions. you know,

i was very upset. so such a strong cow from them. you know the, the crowd suddenly fell completely quiet. it was silence. and with the coffin pulsing by with the music that was so powerful. she meant so much to with see okay. yeah. she was amazing. yeah. so reactivate her. yeah. after 38 minutes the coffin arrived at the hall, where king charles and other members of the royal family, attended a service held for the queen. the late monarch will lie in state here for 4 days. the westminster hall will stay open ground o'clock for members of the public to pay their respects. but the queue, which already started forming 2 days prior, is long. the wait may take as long as 30 hours.

yeah, i'm shopping from free for 7 days. i think you have holidays wage to pay my respects to those with moving in 2 parallel lines, hundreds of thousands of mourners while file past the coffin, before the funeral was held on monday. all right, let's go now dor corresponded barbara visa. she is standing by force there in london. barbara, it has been a day of pop and prefers what stood out amongst to you. it is a day that is probably split in 2 parts in a way because what was really, of course, the core of worst this trip or from buckingham palace that we just saw over to the house of parliament and the great hall of westminster. this very symbolic place for the british monarchy. and this was a trip that clean elizabeth in her lifetime had made so many times at least once

a year when she was coming to the great state, opening of parliament, reading air war to her government had written down for her, the lores and the things that they wanted to do next year, and we never knew what she was thinking when she was reading those texts. sometimes it might be something that could have amazed people had they'd known. and the other part, of course, is that now as of night has fallen over london, the crowd keeps coming. people still lined up here in the long, long que along the south bank of the thames, waiting to cross the bridge and to enter into the hall of westminster to pay their last respects to their monarch, a monarch that they were really emotionally so close to. and so tie too, even though she always throughout her life remained a distant figure. yeah. and she was with them, but she was in the public realm for, for 70 years. and now we've come to the point where all wise are on for coffin. and

they've also been on charles perry and william to day. if we could only be inside beer they're mine. so do we have any idea of how they're coping with the situation bar? their coping, of course, in the way that have they have been trained all of them, the children of the queen and also the grandchildren or william and harry to cope those with those situations. and that is said to show and his face not to show any emotion, looked very solemnity sort of very slow to walk forward. don't look left and right . and don't really show what you might be feeling in your heart that is reserved for those occasions. where for instance, harry ed gave it very hard, felt it said of eulogy to his for his grandmother and shed that said that a he loved her and that she was really always special to him. and to, of course,

childs when he was holding his 1st speech is giving his is speech to the british public. that he sort of said he loved his mom a very emotional, very human and very normal reaction that he showed there in the rest of course. then was the solemn oath to sort of serve his country. so we got a glimpse, but not to day to day was a day of unmoved faces into very solemn exterior t w's, barbara vsl monitoring. what is going to be quite an unprecedented event in london in, in the u. k. thank you, bob. went out to the war in ukraine today. ukrainian, president, modem is zalinski, made his 1st trip to the newly liberated city of ism ukrainian forces recaptured that city as part of the swift counter offensive that have seen keep reclaimed thousands of kilometers of territory that was once controlled by the russians,

particularly in the northeastern harkey region, yet as russian forces are retreating, evidence is emerging of a brutal occupation that they left behind in the city of his union, president zalinski shakes the hand of a ukrainian commander. thanks to his troops, hard work, the city has now been liberated from russian forces. but there's been so much fighting here that there's not much of it left. there are no surprises if you know that it, that's not shock for me. the viewer is where is shocking, but it's not shock for me. and because we, we began to see the same pictures from butcher from the 1st the occupied it characters, so the same destroyed,

builders killed people. and so what can i say for you cranes? ne encounter offensive has seen the ukranian army take back a wide sway of territory in the space of just a few days. but residence here, a shell shocked what they endured during 6 months of russian occupation is just starting to come to light in the battle scarred city of baller, clear southeast of hockey, give reports of torture are merging with criminal day. you made me hold 2 wires attached to an electric generator to the members that were the faster you spin distance and the higher the voltage is equal to coordinate. they kept spinning it and asking questions. they said i was lying to prostrate and so they did it more a year, thought that it happened to some prisoners every of the day when the fellowship was visible vulgarly with the ukrainian army back in control residence. he longed to

put the dark days of war behind them and see the ukrainian flag rise over the country. once again will, earlier i spoke with our correspondent connolly, he is following developments for us in her chief. i asked him about the situation in bat city where you can't see much of such behind me, it's about 10 p. m local time. and there's not a light on anywhere here in the downtown. some of that is because people have left in large numbers. but for the most part, people are still living in that 1st mode of war when it was all about trying to prevent, make it more difficult for us to find targets, keeping like to a minimum hiding behind the curtains and basically leaving the streets as early as possible, it's quite kind of shocking being here. i was last here in april, back then there was still are terrify in the city and you could hear kind of couldn't go more than half now without hearing it. that's not gone. but still you

don't really have the feeling people here kind of believe that this kind of car is here to stay. they had a false false kind of hope early in the some of that things were getting better and then things got a lot worse for they ended up ending the way they did. and there's a sense that russia could retaliate with more attacks on civilians. we had those attacks on the heating plants and had given recent days just earlier this evening. there was a tack on a dam. another part of the country which was looked set to floods residential areas in community to the real sense that russia, the more it ends up losing territory and being cumulative battlefield might really take out those frustrations on students. and what did you make the images we saw the day of ukraine's president zalinski erasing the ukrainian flag over territory that just a few days ago, a few weeks ago had been occupied and controlled by the russians. was he sending a message at the same time? both to the kremlin as well, to the ukrainian people well, not in the ukrainian people,

but also to ukraine's western partners. who, you know, as we've all been following, have been sending weapons but not on a scale that the ukrainians would want. it's pretty important to remember just how fast this evolves has been in basically the space of a week. ukraine has recovered about as much search as russia was able to pick up the last 44 and a half months or so. that is a huge, definitely something that is causing extreme shock in moscow and lot of head scratching and a lot of soul searching as all the criticism of pigeons kremlin a from kind of imperialist kind of commentators in russia. we're now asking for full scale mobilization to prevent a repeat what we've seen here and forgive. but it is also important here for when we're ukrainians, who are going through really tough times who now of 6 months war often running out of savings for that that has come to show that ukraine is not unable to defend it searches, but also is able to go into offense and send those russian forces backing. they've pretty hasty defeat, leaving lots of technology behind him, often with the factoring manuals, still unpacked. so lots of kind of trophies there for ukraine's military and of c.

it's about the contrast that may putin, who is very worried to leave his bunk to leave the kremlin, let alone go and talk to the troops, ordinary people, to very, very, very different images. that's for sure. nick connelly reporting tonight from hockey in ukraine. nick, as always, thank you. sweden's prime minister magdalena anderson has announced her resignation . her left leaning block suffered a narrow defeat in sunday's election coming in a close 2nd to a coalition of right wing political parties. anderson says that she will ask the speaker of parliament on thursday to relieve her of her duties as prime minister, the nationalist, sweden, democrats. they are now the 2nd largest party, with, with a 20 percent of the vote. they will have the 1st opportunity to try and form a new coalition government with their conservative partners. boy, it's too earlier i asked ashok swain, a professor of peace and conflict research at absolute university in sweden. if the victory for the conservative camps,

it will mean tougher immigration rules in the country. i think if you look at, in the last few years that have been sweden has actually restricted its immigration rules because as you know, when they work that is this the rise of fall right? barbie's dick's place boston produced, although barbara means to impart be the dude pride what's in there to police it and tried to get the police in some way that they would thing that there will block. they'll provide quantity, but that has not been successful. so what will happen if the body, which is most likely, will not be bought for them, particular gum and directly, but with it of support, the government will continue. it will certainly will want to stick to more. what's that? could you policy of the country? it will have much more immigrant item in there, some roads, dates of police control measures. it will also will be more going for the deportations of the for, i mean grants. so don't other policies which will be, you know, come, we will see much more and much more, not in a, in

a more modern in human way. our dear is a reminder of our top story. take a look, your see members right now of the public paying their final respects to queen elizabeth at london's westminster hall. the late monarch is now wanting in state. hundreds of thousands of people are expected to pass right through those walls. we see right there in the next 4 days before the queen's funeral, which is scheduled for monday. christie planted as of next week, w business leaves. i'll see you tomorrow with a she's got issues with all say will gray. he will be able the.
