World leaders remember a 'kind-hearted Queen'

World leaders and dignitaries have paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth II, who has died at the age of 96.

They have honoured her deep sense of duty and her resilience, as well as the Queen's sense of humour and kindness.

France's Emmanuel Macron lead the tributes, remembering "a kind-hearted queen" who was "a friend of France".

And former US President Barack Obama said the Queen had "captivated the world" with a "reign defined by grace, elegance, and a tireless work ethic".

Current US President Joe Biden described the Queen as "more than a monarch - she defined an era".

The US flag has also been lowered at the Whitehouse.
