Tsunami remembered three years on

Ceremonies have been held around the world marking the third anniversary of one of the worst natural catastrophes of modern times, the Asian Tsunami.
Nearly a quarter of a million people in 13 countries died in the 26 December, 2004 disaster, which was triggered by a massive undersea earthquake.
Up to 170,000 people perished in Indonesia alone.
Hundreds of people attended an open-air prayer ceremony near Calang town in Indonesia's badly-hit Aceh province.
Smaller ceremonies were held at mass graves and mosques across Aceh, which was closest to the quake epicentre, and where more than two-thirds of the deaths occurred.
