TL;DR Summary

King Charles laid a wreath in memory of the victims of the allied bombing in World War Two on a visit to Hamburg's St Nikolai memorial, which is the remains of a church severely damaged by air raids on the city. The move was hailed as an important symbol by some commentators and is unprecedented for a British monarch. The visit came just ahead of the 80th anniversary of the allied bombing of Hamburg in July 1943, known as "Operation Gomorrah."
