The body of Polish President Lech Kaczynski returned to Poland Sunday.
Kaczynski's twin brother, Jaroslaw, met the plane on the tarmac, where the coffin was saluted by a full honour guard. Thousands of Poles have lined the streets of Warsaw to watch as the coffin makes the 12-kilometre journey to the presidential palace.
Earlier, the streets of Poland's cities were hushed as citizens stood for two minutes of silence to honour Kaczynski and the 95 other people killed in the tragic plane crash in Russia's Smolensk region on Saturday.
