Australians Honor Anzac Day at Dawn While Practicing Proper Social Distancing due to COVID-19 Pandemic
Australians stood at their driveways at dawn listening to the Last Post to honour Anzac Day on April 25, as the COVID19 Pandemic forced people to celebrate the day from their homes.
People were seen standing at their driveways holding candles or standing solemnly early in the morning, taking part in the ritual known as the Dawn Service.
In footage uploaded to Twitter, residents of the Randwick neighborhood in Sydney observe proper social distance protocol, giving each other a wide berth while listening to the Last Post. Returned Services Leagues (RSLs) encouraged Australians to celebrate the public holiday by making their tributes at home, especially in driveways and balconies. RSL Queensland said at least 21,000 Australians had pledged to participate in the dawn service. Credit: TheSusanTracey via Storyful
