Hundreds of people gathered in Omagh today to remember 20 years since the moment of the 1998 Omagh Bomb.
A bell rang 32 times in memory of those killed, reflecting the 31 lives lost.
One of the victims was a pregnant woman carrying twins.
An additional bell rang to remember those who've lost their lives to terrorism around the world, followed by a two minutes silence.
People who had lost loved ones gathered on the spot where the bomb exploded this afternoon. A short ceremony was then led by Omagh Churches Forum at Market Street.
