Titanic tragedy remembered in special events

The 100th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic is being remembered at events across the world, including in the ship's birthplace Belfast.

At the North Atlantic site of the sinking, cruise ship Balmoral, which is retracing the Titanic's route, held a memorial service.
A minute's silence was held, and floral wreaths were cast on to the waves to remember the 1,512 victims who died.
The sinking is also being remembered in other parts of the globe.
