50th anniversary of the Bloody Sunday massacre.

British soldiers opened fire on 28 unarmed civilians during a peaceful protest march in the Bogside area of Derry on January 30, 1972.

A total of 13 people were shot and killed, with another victim dying from their wounds some weeks later.

Events include the families of those who died walking the exact route of the demonstration 50 years ago.
