Aotearoa remembers those who served and died in warfare
On this day, 106 years ago, New Zealand and Australian soldiers – the Anzacs – landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula.
Nowadays, Anzac Day serves as a day to acknowledge all those who have died in warfare, and honours returned servicemen and women.
Traditional dawn services have returned across New Zealand this year, after the Covid-19 pandemic put a stop to them last year.
