Thousands of protesters are gathering across the US to call for stricter gun laws in the wake of last month’s mass shooting in Texas.
Gun safety group March For Our Lives – founded by survivors of the 2018 Parkland school shooting – said some 450 rallies were planned for Saturday.
It said it would not let politicians “sit back” as people continue to die.
US President Joe Biden backed the protests, calling on Congress to “pass common sense gun safety legislation”.
Nineteen children and two adults were killed in the 24 May shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas.
