An elderly Australian war veteran held a Covid-safe Anzac Day dawn service on his Perth driveway after residents were plunged into lockdown amid an outbreak. All official ceremonies in the Perth and Peel regions of WA were cancelled due to a worrying cluster at the Mercure Hotel, prompting residents to instead hold makeshift services on their driveways and front lawns to honour Australia's diggers. World War II veteran Jack Mackrau hosted a small service outside his home in Kingsley, in Perth's north, on Sunday at dawn. Eight of his neighbours, all wearing masks, attended the socially-distanced ceremony, where Mr Mackrau recited the For The Fallen poem.
