Events were held in honour of those who fell in Gallipoli across Australia and New Zealand on Saturday morning

Australia and New Zealand are set to remember soldiers from the two countries who fought at Gallipoli in Turkey during World War One.

The events throughout Saturday will mark the centenary of the landing of Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (Anzacs) at Gallipoli on Anzac Day.
It is estimated more than 11,400 from Australia and New Zealand were killed in the fighting which followed.
Anzac Day is arguably Australia's most important national occasion.
Every year, Australia and New Zealand mark the anniversary of the first campaign, and at the same time remember all the military conflicts that followed.
