Councillors in Derry today held a minute's silence in memory of 10 people killed in the Ballymurphy area of Belfast as an inquest found that they were 'entirely innocent'.
The inquest, which began in November 2018, examined the deaths in August 1971.
The shootings happened after an operation in which a number of people were detained without trial.
The victims included a priest trying to help the wounded and a mother of eight.
Nine of the victims were killed by the Army, the coroner said.
