10/11/2013 Newsround

Good afternoon, you are watching newsround.

People all over Britain have fallen silent for two minutes to remember

those killed in wars around the world. The Queen and Prince William

led the Remembrance Sunday tributes in London. There's more on this

coming up on Newsround. First, though, to the devastating

news that keeps on coming out of the Philippines following one of the

most powerful storms ever. Police in the South East Asian country now

fear Typhoon Haiyan has killed up to 10,000 people. Special flights are

starting to take emergency supplies of food and medical equipment into

some of the really hard to reach areas, which were among the worst

affected. The most badly hit was the city of Tacloban. The BBC's Rupert

Wingfield Hayes is there. This is a scene of complete

devastation. This is the airport car park, cars overturned, the building

itself completely destroyed. We find me here there are hundreds and

hundreds of people lining up, desperate to get on any aircraft

they can to get out of here, and that is because there is nothing, no

clean water, no food, no electricity. And we have heard

reports from people we have been speaking to that said there has

already speaking to that said there has

inside the city of Tacloban. The devastation that has been caused

here, obviously there were very very strong winds here. You can see what

they have done to the trees behind me. But it is not just the wind

There was a huge storm surge that swept in from the coast a couple of

hundred meters away, and this has literally knocked down concrete

buildings. So it seems, from what we have seen here, briefly, the death

toll here is going to be very considerable indeed.

Typhoon Haiyan has now passed over the Philippines and is heading

north-west towards Vietnam, a country bordering China to the

south. Hundreds of thousands of people living there have been told

to leave their homes and head for shelter. It is thought the storm

will reach Vietnam tomorrow afternoon, but it is expected to

have got weaker by then. And if you are upset by anything you

see in the news, there's lots of advice and info to help you on the

Newsround website. Now to the day's other big story, it

is Remembrance Sunday. Millions of people across Britain have stayed

silent for two minutes to remember the millions who have died in

fighting in wars all over the world. The Queen led the tributes by laying

a wreath of poppies at the Cenotaph war memorial in London. Prince Harry

also laid a wreath. And there were tributes from politicians too,

including the Prime Minister David Cameron. Then thousands of former

and current servicemen and women marched along Whitehall to pay their

respects. Lamb scored for Chris Noble was injured in Afghanistan and

took part in the march in London. -- Lamb scored for. You see it on TV

but you don't realise what an amazing experience it is. I am doing

this for my brother and other veterans of the forces and it is an

amazing experience, you cannot explain it.

It wasn't just here in the UK. In Afghanistan, a service was held at

the British base Camp Bastion to remember the 446 UK servicemen and

women killed in the conflict. The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of

Cornwall also marked the event during their official tour of India,

taking part in the remembrance service at a church in Mumbai.

Next year will see special commemorations for the 100th

anniversary of the start of the First World War, which began in

August 1914. We would like you to be part of these events. Here's Leah.

The First World War was a war that changed how we live today. More than

one million men and women from Britain and the Commonwealth died in

the fighting between 1914 and 1 18. Every place in the country and every

family was affected by the war. And we want to hear your family's

stories. Maybe in your house you have relatives' photos, medals, or

diaries, like these here at the Imperial War Museum. Or perhaps your

Mum and Dad or grandparents have stories about what your family did

during the war, whether it was fighting in the trenches, or working

in a factory or hospital. Head online to send us your stories and

pictures. There's a page on the website with all the information for

how to get stuff to us. Next, exciting stuff as JK Rowling

has given a rare interview about her Harry Potter spin off book,

Fantastic Beasts. She was speaking to the BBC to raise awareness of her

charity Lumos, which supports millions of children around the

world living in poor conditions There will be a film based on her

new book. And she says she doesn't think she will ever leave the world

of Hogwarts behind. It is different characters but it is

the same world. I think part of me will forever live there, and I'm not

sorry about that. will forever live there, and I'm not

about that at all, I love being there, but I'm having more fun than

I can tell you working on Fantastic Beasts so I have no regrets, I am

having fun. Just time for one more story, the

Olympic torch has made history by heading out on its first ever space

walk! Two Russian cosmonauts took it out of the International Space

Station. When it is back on earth, it will light the Olympic cauldron

at the Winter Games in Sochi in February.

That's all from Newsround this afternoon. Leah is here in the

morning to bring you all the Disaster Chefs, parents who

are rubbish at cooking. He's got just 24 hours to help

them master a two course meal in a professional kitchen

for some fierce critics. Will they raise like a souffle

or flop like a pancake?
