King Charles to lay wreath to German victims of wartime air raids
Briefly

King Charles will this week become the first British monarch to lay a wreath to the German victims of allied air raids in the second world war.The move is a departure from his mother's handling of the historically sensitive subject on previous royal visits to the country.At the end of his first state visit as monarch, Charles III is scheduled on Friday to visit Hamburg's St Nikolai memorial, a 12th-century church severely damaged during Operation Gomorrah in July 1943 and since preserved in its ruined state to commemorate its victims.
